Tonight
Guess Lyrics

Lonely feeling
The singer feels alone and isolated.

Deep inside
This loneliness and isolation is a deep-seated emotion.

Find a corner
The singer wants to find a secluded place to be alone in.

Where I can hide
The purpose of finding this corner is to hide away from the world.

Silent footsteps
Someone is approaching quietly.

Crowding me
The singer feels overwhelmed and invaded by this person's presence.

Sudden darkness
It becomes dark suddenly, perhaps signifying the singer's unease or fear.

But I can see
Despite the darkness, the artist can still see what's happening.

No sugar tonight in my coffee
The artist doesn't want any sweetness in his life.

No sugar tonight in my tea
The artist wants everything to be as bitter as possible.

No sugar to stand beside me
The singer doesn't want anyone to support him or stand by his side.

No sugar to run with me
The artist doesn't want anyone to join him on his life's journey.

Dat'n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow
Musical interlude

In the silence
There is no noise or distraction.

Of her mind
The person present is lost in their thoughts.

Quiet movements
The person present moves slowly and quietly.

Where I can find
The artist wants to locate this person.

Grabbing for me
The person present tries to pull the singer in towards them.

With her eyes
This person is using their eyes to communicate with the singer.

Now I'm falling
The artist is losing control and falling for this person.

From her skies
The artist is falling from the heights of passion that this person has taken them to.

Jocko says "Yes" and I believe him
The artist believes that their friend Jocko is telling the truth about something.

When we talk about the things I say
When the singer discusses their thoughts with Jocko.

She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him
The person they are talking about lacks the confidence or courage to leave their partner.

When they're standing in each other's way
This lack of courage prevents this person from moving on with their life.

You're tripping back now to places you've been to
The singer is revisiting old memories and experiences.

You wonder what you're gonna find

You know you've been wrong but it won't be long
The artist realizes they've made mistakes but is optimistic about the future.

Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it's the new mother nature taking over
A new force or power is emerging and taking control.

It's the new splendid lady come to call
This new force is being personified as a woman who is bringing positive changes.

She's gettin' us all
Everyone is being influenced by this new force.

Jocko said "No" when I came back last time
The artist wasn't able to get the answer they wanted from Jocko.

It's looking like I lost a friend
The artist has lost a friend due to this disagreement.

No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'
The singer doesn't see a point in trying to resolve this issue because it feels like the end of the world.

And I'm getting pretty near the end
The artist feels like they're at their breaking point and can't take any more stress or heartache.

A smoke-filled room in a corner basement
A seedy or unsavory location where people are smoking.

The situation must be right
The singer believes that everything is coming together for something to happen.

A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine

We're gonna get it on right tonight

'Cause it's the new mother nature taking over
