Girls Like You
Denny Lyrics

I first saw you on a dark night
The singer encountered the person they are singing to on a dark night.

You had your hair in a part to the side
The person had their hair styled in a side part.

Perfumed by champagne and cigarettes
The person's scent was reminiscent of champagne and cigarettes.

Ask me if I’m here by myself
The artist was asked if they were alone on that night.

I remember that you loved him
The artist recalls that the person they are singing to was in love with someone else.

We’ve got no concern for predicaments
The singer and the person they are singing to were not worried about any potential consequences or problems.

You taste like champagne and cigarettes
The person's taste is similar to that of champagne and cigarettes.

I think this night is playing tricks on our hearts
The artist believes that the night is affecting their emotions in an unpredictable way.

Your eyes so bright behind a cigarette spark
The person's eyes are shining in the light of a cigarette.

We’re wasting time, don't stop to think this through
The artist and the person they are singing to are not concerned with wasting time or thinking too deeply about the situation.

I’ve got a thing for girls like you

It’s lovely to be twenty-three, drunk on the summer night heat
The artist is describing the feeling of being young and carefree, drunk on the heat of a summer night.

Your body’s playing me on repeat on this moonlit night
The person's physical presence is captivating and causing the singer to become obsessed.

Still together in the dark lake, you taught me how to misbehave
The singer and the person they are singing to are still together, and the person taught them to break rules and have fun.

We sing with champagne and cigarettes, ask me if I’m here by myself
The two of them sing while they enjoy champagne and cigarettes together, and the singer is asked again if they are alone.
