    this rendition alone is inspiration enough to make a Bond movie out of it. Whatever alternate universe has this song being used as a Bond theme is the REAL deal. Has some Edge of Darkness vibes to it too; I want a spy movie with this song so bad!!

    its actually:
    I've been crossing out the words I left unsaid
    From the epilogue left flying in my head
    There is poetry in tragedy unread
    Until tonight
    There’s no other angel, quite like you
    They broke a mold a thousand pieces
    I see through
    and Though I try to realign them, like I do
    You on your own girl
    and I did to
    So here I am...

    Alone Tonight (Acoustic) Lyrics:
    Slipping sideways till the stars collide
    And fade away just like our love had died
    There is nowhere in this universe to hide
    From you tonight
    I've wrestled with angels, all my life
    It's always the halos and the wings that keep you blind
    And if I fight with all the strength I held inside
    I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    I’ve been crossing out the words I left unsaid
    From the epilog flying in my head
    Where there is poetry and tragedy unveil
    Until tonight
    There’s no other angel, quite like you
    They broke the mold a thousand pieces
    I see you
    Though I try to re alive them, like I do
    You on your own girl
    And I did to
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking

    lyric
    Slipping sideways, silver stars collide
    And fade away just like our love that died
    And there is nowhere in this universe to hide from you tonight
    I've wrestled with angels all my life
    It's always the halos and the wings that keep you blind
    And if I'd fought with all the strength I held inside
    I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    I wouldn't be standing alone tonight
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    Slipping sideways, silver stars collide
    And fade away just like our love that died
    And there is nowhere in this universe to hide from you tonight
    I've wrestled with angels all my life
    It's always the halos and the wings that keep you blind
    And if I'd fought with all the strength I held inside
    I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    Alone tonight just like the western star, I'm sinking.
    The angels curse me blind with straight and crooked thinking
    And if I'd fought with all the strength I held inside
    I wouldn't be out here alone tonight
