It's One Of Those Nights
David Cassidy Lyrics

It's one of those nights when you turn out the lights
It's one of those times where you want to be alone and in the presence of the darkness

And you sit in the dark and say to yourself 'I miss her'
You're missing the one you love and it's a feeling that cannot be ignored

It's one of those moods when your body broods
You can't help but feel down and sad about your situation

And you conjure up her picture and you kiss her
You start to imagine what it would be like if she was still in your life and you still had the ability to kiss her

It's one of those things for the pain it brings
The pain that comes with the memories of the past is worth it for the love you felt

You say to yourself 'Hey couldn't I live without it?'
You try to convince yourself that you could move on from the love that was lost

Well, I think so, on the other hand, I doubt it
You're unsure whether it's possible to truly move on from the one you love

Well suddenly she's crashing through my mind
You can't stop thinking about the one you love and how much you miss her

Like waves upon the shore (like waves upon the shore)
These thoughts and feelings are intense and overwhelming

And I nod my head, whoa yes love, I'd welcome you again
You still have love for the one you lost and would welcome her back with open arms

If you knocked upon my door (If you knocked upon my door)
You would be willing to give the relationship another chance if they expressed interest in doing so.

If you didn't, I'd seek you out love, I'd track you down for sure
You would actively pursue the possibility of getting back together if they didn't approach you first

Like a thousand times before (Like a thousand times before)
You've been in this position before and have chased this love many times before

It's a pain in the neck, it'll make you a wreck if it gets ya
The loss of this love can create a lot of emotional pain and turmoil

It's so insane 'cause for all the rain
Despite all the heartache they put you through, you still hold onto hope that they will return

When you ask yourself could you do it all again, you betcha
You still believe the love was worth it, despite the pain of losing it

I hear a voice say you got no chance
You're faced with doubt and negativity that threatens to take away hope

And it makes me mad and I shout, 'Oh yeah, who says so?'
You're determined to hold onto hope despite the negativity around you.

Of course not, on the other hand, I guess so
You're unsure of whether your hope is realistic or not, but you cling onto it anyway

Oh, yes love, I'd welcome you again like you know I did before
You have never stopped loving this person and would welcome them back into your life

Ahh...yes love, you know I did before (before)
This love is not new to you, you've loved before and been willing to chase them again and again
