 I know it's been a while now, 
Since you last heard from me, 
Or talked to me 
It's been kind of hard lately 
I've had a lot on my mind 
It's been so long that, 
I'm afraid that the words may not come out right 
But, tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
Tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
I know that prayin' ain't always easy 
It's hard sometimes to express what you feel inside 
Especially when you don't think god is listening 
It's been raining now for sometime 
But instead of what I see 
You want me to trust you, working it out for me 
So, tonight I will try 
Tonight 
Oh oh oh 
Tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
Who ever told you that living in this world would be easy? 
Baby, they lied 
And, whoever said that lovin' folk that don't love you back ain't really hard 
Even though you really tryin' 
Telling you what I'm going through 
Sometimes it's harder than I realize 
But tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
Tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
So, tonight when you get home 
You oughta unplug the phone 
And get alone 
Tell your father how you truly feel 
Even if your words don't come out right 
For no matter how far you've gone 
God's love can find you, and bring you back home 
So, tonight you oughta try, 
Tonight 
So, tonight you oughta try, 
Tonight 
Who ever told you that living in this world would be easy? 
Baby, they lied 
And, whoever said that lovin' folk who don't love you back ain't really hard 
Even though you really tryin' 
Telling you what I'm going through 
Sometimes it's harder than I realize 
But tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
Tonight I'll try 
Tonight 
Tonight 
Take away my pain (tonight) 
Take away my strains (tonight) 
And let me live (tonight) 
All over again (tonight) 
Tonight I'm gonna throw my hands up (tonight) 
Tonight I'm gonna give it all up (tonight) 
Tonight I wanna turn it all around (tonight) 
Put my feet on solid ground (tonight) 
Won't you take me where you need to take me (tonight) 
Won't you do with me what you wanna do with me (tonight) 
Tonight 
Tonight 
This night 
Tonight 
I'm yours 
I'm yours [x3]
