Night & Day
Benji Lewis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You left long ago
It′s been 3 years since I heard your voice
You said you love me forever
I believed in those words, like night and day

Those conversations we shared
Like moments frozen in time
You said we'll see each other again
I believed in those words, like night and day

LYRICS:

Chasing the feels
Some is on the way, sun is shining out
Don't hide away from the runaway
Take a sip, drink down
Take a longer walk out by the ocean
Drift on, drift on
Deep down, deep down
Deep down you know you'll find a way
You'll find a way
By the way, I kinda like it

It's shining right, it's shining right
We'll never know, we'll never know
What did we find, out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on

Don't want her to wait
Come over me
I drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

Taking it in, soak it all down
Look around you now at the sundown
Lighter than before
Sit back eyes wide

It's shining right, it's shining right
We'll never know, we'll never know
What did we find, out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on

Don't want her to wait
Come over me
I drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

In comes the night
It starts right by all the saint
Born on the fighter
In comes the night
It starts right by all the saint
Born on the fighter

Don't want her to wait
Come over me
I drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

Out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on
Out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on

Your lyrics are very very off haha

Chasing the feels
Summer's on the way, sun is shining out
Don't hide away, find the right wine
Take a sip, drink down
Take a longer walk out by the ocean
Drift on, drift on
Deep down, deep down
Deep down you know you'll find a way
You'll find a way
By the way, I kinda like it

[Pre-Chorus]
It's shining right, it's shining right
We'll never know, we'll never know
What did we find, out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on

[Chorus]
Don't want to rewind
Come all that may
I'll drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

[Verse 2]
Taking it in, slow it all down
Look around you now at the sundown
Lighter than before
Sit back eyes wide

[Pre-Chorus]
It's shining right, it's shining right
We'll never know, we'll never know
What did we find, out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on

[Chorus]
Don't want to rewind
Come all that may
I'll drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

[Bridge]
In comes the night
Stars bright, right on the sand
All around the fire
In comes the night
Stars bright, right on the sand
All around the fire

[Chorus]
Don't want to rewind
Come all that may
I'll drift on, drift on
Do it all again
Nothing holding us still
We'll drift on, drift on

[Outro]
Out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on
Out by the ocean
Feels right to me
Drift on, drift on
