Forever For Tonight

Blessid Union of Souls

Could I be with you alone?
I'm not sure where this will go
'Cause we don't have the time we need
Just enough to make us bleed

'Cause I'll be leaving soon
It's hard to say when I'll return
And I don't want to lead you on
So if you feel the need
Close your eyes and share this dream
It will be eternity

Forever for tonight
I will be there to hold you through the night
Forever for tonight
I will love you forever for tonight
Forever for tonight

As I look into your eyes
Feelings much too strong for us not to try
And if by chance we lose this fight
Darling, we still have tonight

So when I'm far away
I will always be with you
You will never be alone
So if you feel the need
Take my hand, and share this night
It will be eternity

See, I've been broken down by empty promises
Like a sky without a star
And I've been having doubts that I could feel again
But I believe that I'm in love

    wow this song gets me everytime. it describes perfectly a situation going on in my life right now...its about someone who wants to be with another person so bad but it just can't happen, but they have that one night, and the only thing that matters is that they still have that one night...

He certainly did earn that reputation.

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?

Techno Ted
Audioslave
Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
