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
