Tonight, I'm take this heart full of trouble
And in just one night watch it double
Well, I'm going to lay my cards in the light
Tonight, I'm gonna turn this wheel of misfortune
And rob every purse of its portion
Well, I'm gonna break this house tonight
Well, a man's gonna stand his ground
And play his hand, it makes him wrong
Or it makes him right
But the wheel's gonna spin
In a game no one can win when you get home
All alone, tonight
Tonight, well there's gonna be a change in the weather
Like when pressure zones come together
There ain't gonna be no place to hide
Tonight, there'll be thunderclouds out 'a prowling
And the winds of change will be howling
Well, there's gonna be a storm tonight
Well, a woman may cry and raise her hand against the sky
She may be strong but is it worth the fight?
When you're out in the wind and you're gonna break 'cause you won't bend
When you get home all alone, tonight
Tonight, well, I'm gonna take a torch to the memory
That's been festering so long within me
And I'm gonna sear my soul just for spite
Tonight, I'm gonna burn my bridges behind me
So there's nothing left to remind me
I don't want no one to find me tonight
Well, I could change but I won't
I could care but I just don't, I might be wrong
Yeah, but nothing's right
There's a fire in my soul burning out of my control
And I'll be gone when you get home
All alone
Tonight
