Locked away all those summer nights,
These things take time, believe me
And I won't ever try to break character

And tonight, it's time, so long, goodbye
And the guys with their ordinary lives
and the tears in their eyes, if only for tonight...

When the day, sort of breaks in two
And the sky, turns a kind of blue
If the stars are what you look up to
The golden boys, are right beside you

When half your friends don't even know your name
You won't feel the same, just don't walk that way
There's a chance that I'm not coloured right,
not in my favourite light, but it's worth a try

And tonight, it's time, so long, goodbye
And the guys with their ordinary lives
and the tears in their eyes, if only for tonight...

When the day, sort of breaks in two
And the sky, turns a kind of blue
If the stars are what you look up to
The golden boys, are right beside you

And tonight, it's time, so long, goodbye
And the guys with their ordinary lives
and the tears in their eyes, if only for tonight...

When the day, sort of breaks in two
And the sky, turns a kind of blue
If the stars are what you look up to
The golden boys, are right beside you

When half your friends don't even know your name
you won't feel the same, just don't walk that way
And I, I want that walk to change me for good

And tonight, it's time, so long, goodbye
And the guys with their ordinary lives
and the tears in their eyes, if only for tonight...

When the day, sort of breaks in two
And the sky, turns a kind of blue
If the stars are what you look up to
The golden boys, are right beside you
