Climbing to #1 on the Musicals Chart 4-17-06. This is the night that magic can happen. So if love can happen, let it be tonight.
Thinking about the big final song on American Idol was the inspiration for this song. Our winning hero gets everything he ever hoped for on this night except for the girl. This is his plea to make his world totally complete.
Let It Be Tonight

1. As I walk out the stage
I am blinded by the glare
I can see you through the spot lights
I feel your anxious stare
2. Now the music is beginning
As I take a nervous breath
I see a crashing bolt of lightning
As our eyes both connect
3. Our eyes are locked together
But these words cannot convey
The height the depth the sense of passion
That grows from day to day
Chorus
If love can happen
Let it be tonight
The stars are in alignment
Everything is right
If love can happen
It’s gonna be tonight
4. Standing here in front of the millions
I hope you realize
The feelings that I have for you
I’m shouting with my eyes
5. And now I want to scream it
To be heard across the earth
So much more than life itself
How much your love is worth
Chorus
If love can happen
Let it be tonight
The stars are in alignment
Everything is right
If love can happen
It’s gonna be tonight
Solo
Repete Chorus
