Kiss You Tonight
David Nail Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I catch myself wishing
You were whispering my name
Every star, every scar
Every mark upon my heart
Up and fades away

I feel myself missing
Everything I threw away
Every dream, every scene
Every song we'd ever sing
Got lost in yesterday

I've been trying to do without you
But I can't give up this fight
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight
We can make it to tomorrow
If we can find the morning light
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight

Do you find yourself wondering
If I still think about you
Every thought, every step
Every tear and every breath
I swear I do
Yeah, that's all I ever do

I've been trying to do without you
But I can't give up this fight
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight
We can make it to tomorrow
If we can find the morning light
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight
If I can kiss you tonight

I've been trying to do without you
But I can't give up this fight
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight
We can make it to tomorrow
If we can find the morning light
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight
Everything will be alright
If I can kiss you tonight




If I can kiss you tonight
If I could kiss you tonight

Overall Meaning

The song "Kiss You Tonight" by David Nail is a heart-wrenching ballad about the pain of losing someone and wanting them back. The singer laments that he finds himself wishing for his former lover to whisper his name and hold him again. He reflects on every star, scar, and mark on his heart that has faded away since their separation. He misses everything he threw away, including their dreams, scenes, and songs they used to sing together.


Despite his efforts to move on, the singer can't give up the fight to win back his love. The hope of a kiss from his former lover, even just for one night, could make everything alright. He believes that if they can make it through the night and find the morning light, they could have a chance at making it to tomorrow.


The lyrics suggest that the singer is still consumed by his love for this person and hasn't been able to move on. He wonders if she thinks about him as much as he thinks about her. The song conveys a sense of yearning and longing for someone who is no longer there, and the hope that they may reunite.
