Tonight There must be people who are gettin' what they want I let my oars fall into the water Good for them Good for them Gettin' what they want Gettin' what they want The night is so still that I Forget to breathe The dark air is gettin' colder Birds are leavin' Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need The air Is so still that it seems to stop my heart I remember you in a black and white photograph Taken this time of some year You were leaving against a half-shed tree Standing in the leaves the tree had lost The night is so still that I Forget to breathe When I finally exhale it Takes forever to be over Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight there are people who are so happy That they have forgotten To worry about tomorrow Somewhere people Have entirely forgotten about tomorrow My hand trails in the water I should not have Dropped those oars Such a soft wind Such a soft wind Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight There are people gettin' just what they need Tonight
