I started out to be the man behind the scenes Knowing I was in above my head For all that I could see I never saw the truth Now I'm alone Heaven only knows how much I'm missing you Knowing I had heaven in my hands And there will be tears Tears are mixed with rain Keeper of my flame Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight There will be tears tonight I will not sleep tonight There will be tears
The silent telephone, the turning of the key You're still inside of me , I'm not ashamed For all that I can do , I can't forget your face I call your name Heaven only knows what I've been crying for , what I'm crying for And all I've done to keep this love alive Even through my tears Tears are mixed with rain Keeper of my flame I will pray you're on my side, we stand forever There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight There will be tears tonight I will not sleep tonight There will be tears
(break)
Soon there will be tears rollin' down my world Keeper of my flame Time and tide is on my side, it stands forever There will be nights of love and yes there will be tears
I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears tonight I will not sleep tonight. There will be tears
