Night After Night
Dana McCoy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In this room all by myself
Feel like I could use your help
Turn the radio on to fill up the silence
And I pretend the voice is you
You're saying all the things you'd do
Wishin, you occupy
My mind
But I'd rather be by your side
Feelings complicate
I Never know what to say
But baby i'll show you tonight
Night after night
Get it right
Let you know before you leave
An emotional release
NIght after night
I can try
Give you every part of me
Fall in love so easily
Didn't intend to make it habit
But now i can't help myself
Forget everybody else
Spendin' all this time
Wishin, you occupy
My mind
But I'd rather be by your side
Feelings complicate
I Never know what to say
Feelings complicate
I Never know what to say
But baby I'll show you tonight
Night after night
Get it right
Let you know before you leave
An emotional release
NIght after NIght
I can try
Give you every part of me
Fall in love so easily
Night,
Night after night
Night,
Night after night
Night,
Night after
Night after night
Get it right
Let you know before you leave
An emotional release
NIght after NIght
I can try
Give you every part of me
Fall in love so easily
Night after night
Get it right
Let you know before you leave
An emotional release
NIght after NIght
I can try
Give you every part of me
Fall in love so easily
Dana McCoy's song Night After Night explores the feeling of solitude that can sometimes creep up on us when we are left alone in our thoughts. The opening verse sets up the mood with the lyrics, "Sometimes it's just a little too quiet in this room all by myself, feel like I could use your help." The artist is yearning for someone to fill the empty space and silence with their comforting presence. Turning on the radio gives the illusion of a company, and it's not just any company, but the company of the person they desire. Even though they know it's just a voice on the radio and not the actual person, they pretend that it is them, "You're saying all the things you'd do." It's a way of coping with the lonely feelings and imagining the presence of the person who could potentially bring joy and happiness.
The chorus, "Night after night, get it right, let you know before you leave, an emotional release," shows the artist's determination to express their feelings to the person they desire. Even though they find it difficult to articulate their emotions, they want to keep trying to get it right. They are hoping to create a space of emotional intimacy and vulnerability with the person they love. The repetition of the chorus highlights the struggle and the constant need for emotional release. The lyrics also emphasize the willingness to give all of themselves to the person they love.
Overall, the song conveys the idea that love is a complex feeling that can be difficult to express or understand. However, it's worth the effort to try and establish a connection with someone, even if it means night after night of trying to get it right.
