Lyrics:

I am me and everywhere tonight
I am me and everywhere tonight
I am me and everywhere tonight
Tonight

In the trails made by giant ships
In the sway of a teddy girl's hips
In the curl of a teddy boy's lips
Tonight

In the trails the aeroplanes make
In an old age pensioner's cake
I'm not here for just anyone's sake
Tonight

In the places nobody goes
I'll be there with a very long nose
Tonight
Where nobody sees
Tonight
I'm under the trees
It's alright
Tonight
I've waited so long
Tonight
If nothing goes wrong
It's alright
Tonight

When you're older looking around
You will hear a familiar sound
I'll be gone, but I'll still be around
Tonight

When you turn the key to your door
Someone's been inside there before
It was me, but you don't know what for
Tonight tonight

In the back of a broken-down car
On the rim of a vacuum jar
I'll be with you wherever you are
Tonight tonight
I'll be with you wherever you are
Tonight tonight
Tonight I'll be with you
I'll be with you
Tonight I'll be with you
I'll be with you
Tonight I'll be with you
I'll be with you
Tonight I'll be with you
I'll be with you
