After Dark
Andy Gibb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There not anything I would not do to ease your troubled mind
Where you are , there is a different feeling
I wake up , I'm on the ceilin' , opens up your eyes
What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine , immediately

After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark

There is no limit that I would not go
if I could lie beside
Where you are , there is a different out there
Love in the jungle can be hard to realize
What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine immediately

After dark where the lights are fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights are fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark

There is not anything I would not do to ease your troubled mind
Where you are , there is a different feeling
I wake up , I'm on the ceilin' ,opens up your eyes
What a shape ! Someone you can't forget for any time
Oh , let me show you mine immediately

After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark

After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there
We leave immediately
After dark where the lights start fading sweet and low
I wanna be there , I wanna be there




We leave immediately
After dark

I still listen this album every day and I can't believe what perfect and actual music! Gibb family are the best.

Marie Grimes

Remembering Andy Gibb by listening to his albums all week. 😰 He's been gone 33 years but will remain in our hearts and memories forever. 💙🎶🎤🕊🕯♾
Rest In Peace Andy.

Michael Williams

I have been a big Andy Gibb fan since age four, when "I Just Want To Be Your Everything" was a huge hit in 1977! If RSO Records would have released this song as a single, I think that it would have been a Top 40 hit!

William Wheeler

That’s basically what I came here to say

Michael Williams

@William Wheeler, great minds think alike!

Victor TalkingMachine

My all-time favorite Andy Gibb recording. I can't understand why it never caught on...the melody and arrangement are superb. Sad cocaine abuse at the time eventually led to his premature death.

Ileana Cancio

Left us way too soon but his talent, his voice and charm stayed with us to remember him forever. Those of us that had the chance to enjoy his music keep him alive. RIP Andy!

Andy Roman

today is the 35th anniversary of Andrew Roy Gibb's passing,5 days after turning age 30.

Cheryl Guest

Andy had a light inside that words cannot explain. Barry said that Hollywood was his downfall. His voice, his spirit and his light is still unmistakable. Rip Andy, I truly hope that you're happy on another plain somewhere. 🎶🎶🎶💖❤💖

DesertRose122

Andy is someone you can't forget for any time...RIP Andy, Maurice, Robin, Hugh Gibb, and now Robert Stigwood.
