lyrics

Tonight, I won't stop tonight.

1, 2, 3, 4 put the pedal to the floor just once more
Even though I need the sleep I'm growing I can't stand the company I keep
And my eyes are growing heavy, but my hands are feeling steady
I think I'm ready to take a turn for the worst
The sirens are calling, but I won't stop tonight

I won't stop tonight.
It doesn't get much better than this
It couldn't get much worse than it already is

Cmon cmon cmon, everybody sing that old Bob Dylan song, it goes
La da da da da, da da da
Cmon cmon cmon, if there's a lesson to be learned I'll sing along
I've got the words tattooed to my chest
Now there's a hole in my chest, I'm spilling it out tonight

I won't stop tonight
It doesn't get much better than this
It couldn't get much worse than it already is

We'll go on and take the night away
We'll take the night away

Have you ever stood out in the pooring rain staring at the keys in your car?
I have felt like that for my entire life, and I am done.

Tonight, I won't stop tonight
It doesn't get much better than this
It couldn't get much worse than it already is
