When You're Out Tonight
Liner Notes
#love #singersongwriter #simple
this song is an exercise in letting things be imperfect. i didnt have a lot of time so i didnt spend a lot of time making it. it kind of all just came out of me pretty much as is: lyrics and all. i usually slave over lyrics because i want to put a lot of meaning behind them, but for this one i just let whatever came first to my head be what i said. obviously, im a hopeless romantic. never been in a relationship yet, but i cant wait until i find the person im looking for because im gonna love them so much
Lyrics
When you're out tonight
Will you dance underneath the sky
When you're out tonight
In this pale moonlight
When you're walking away
Will you say my name?
Will you wake me up?
When I've fallen down the drain?
Yeah it’s you
Yeah it’s you, that I'm looking for
When you're out tonight
Will you meet me in the light?
When you walk away
I can see it in your face
You want to make it right
But not tonight
Oh how lovely it would be
To finally see you,
Dancing around without a care in the world
Cause you, deserve all of it
And I would like to be by your side
When it rains down upon us
And nothing stays the same
And nothing stays the same
Oh I love you the most
And I cant say it enough
Will you say my name?
Will you wake me up?
When I've fallen down the drain?
Yeah it’s you
Yeah it’s you, that I'm looking for
When you're out tonight
Will you meet me in the light?
and this is, all-in-all, really strong. Lots of great lines. "You want to make it right/But not tonight" is another terrific pairing,
