The song "Late Night" by Alley Coop is about a late-night encounter with a lover. The first verse talks about the longing for this person who has not yet arrived. The singer expresses that they can feel the presence of their lover on their lips, and the anticipation causes their blood to rush to their head. They then close their eyes and see shades of blue and red, which could represent the colors of passion and desire. The second verse talks about the desire to stay together and not be alone. The chorus repeats the refrain "late night" and the same verse about feeling the presence of their lover on their lips, emphasizing the intensity of their desire.
The song captures the feeling of a passionate encounter with someone that is only possible in the night time, and the singer does not want the moment to end. The lyrics are simple yet powerful, expressing the desire and passion that many people feel in their relationships.
