If you're a Phillies fan, today probably feels like Christmas Day. Or at least Christmas eve.

Nothing has happened yet, but there's a lot of anticipation for what everyone believes is going to happen.... tonight.

On that note, there's a song that been in my head all day. In high school and college, the Smashing Pumpkins were all the rage. Since we're almost at Halloween, what better of a band to quote.

Here's one of there songs, "Tonight, Tonight," which has some pretty appropriate lyrics for what's going on in Philly today...


TONIGHT, TONIGHT
by Smashing Pumpkins

Time... is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel

Believe... believe in me, believe
Believe that life can change
That you're not stuck in vain
We're not the same, we're different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight.... tonight

And you know you're never sure
But you're sure you could be right,
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
The place where you were born

Believe... believe in me, believe
Believe in the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe there's not a chance tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight

Well crucify the insincere tonight
Well make things right, well feel it all tonight, tonight
Well find a way to offer up the night, tonight
The indescribable moments of your life, tonight
The impossible is possible tonight, tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you.... tonight
