In The Night
Delegation Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
as we melt away
and only angels did weep
as we fall away
hold my hand as we fall
i'll love you anyway
kiss me just once again
and i'll be on my way
The lyrics of Delegation's song In The Night convey the bittersweet feelings of a couple who are about to part ways. The opening line, "soft tears fall in the night," sets the tone for the song, with the suggestion that the emotions being expressed are deep and heartfelt. The couple is "melting away" as they say their goodbyes, with only angels weeping as they fall away from each other.
The singer, perhaps trying to find some solace in the moment, asks his partner to hold his hand as they fall apart. He promises to love her anyway, no matter what happens, and even begs for one last kiss. The sense of longing and regret in the song is palpable, and the lyrics beautifully capture the pain of saying goodbye to someone that you love.

soft tears fall in the night
Gentle drops of tears falling in the darkness of night.
as we melt away
As we dissolve into a state of vulnerability and surrender.
and only angels did weep
Showing that the moment was so serene and beautiful that even the angels couldn't help but cry.
as we fall away
Slipping away into another moment, feeling like time is fleeting.
hold my hand as we fall
As we fall deeper into this moment, hold onto my hand for support.
i'll love you anyway
No matter what happens, I will continue to love you.
kiss me just once again
Give me one last moment of intimacy before we part ways.
and i'll be on my way
I will leave and continue my journey, but I will always cherish this moment we had together.
