We may not yet have reached our glory

But I will gladly join the fight

And when our children tell their story

They'll tell the story of tonight

They'll tell the story of tonight, tonight

Have you ever felt like nobody was there?

Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere?

Have you ever felt like you could disappear?

Like you could fall and no one would hear?

Well, let that lonely feeling wash away

(All we see is light)

'Cause maybe there's a reason to believe you'll be okay

(For forever) 'Cause when you don't feel strong enough to stand

You can reach, reach out your hand

And oh

Raise a glass to freedom

Something they can never take away

(Oh) No matter what they tell you

(Someone will come running to take you home)

Raise a glass to all of us

Tomorrow there'll be more of us

Telling the story of tonight

(Out of the shadows, the morning is breaking)

They'll tell the story of tonight

(And all is new) All is new

(All is new) It's only a matter of time

Even when the dark comes crashing through

When you need a friend to carry you

When you're broken on the ground

You will be found

So let the sun come streaming in

'Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again

If you only look around

You will be found

And when our children tell their story

(You will be found)

They'll tell the story of tonight

(Woah, oh, oh, oh)

No matter what they tell you

(Tomorrow there'll be more of us)

Telling the story of tonight

The story of tonight
