Talk About It
Kate & Anna McGarrigle/Kate McGarrigle Lyrics

The party's over for some but for others it's still Going strong
While the party has come to an end for some people, it's still going strong for others.

It's the wee small hours, midnight's long gone
It's the early hours of the morning, long after midnight has passed.

You look into my eyes and I look into yours
We're exchanging a meaningful gaze.

And when the band starts to play lead me onto the dance Floor
When the band starts playing, take me to the dance floor so we can dance together.

Put your hands to my hips and swing me around
Hold me by my hips and dance with me.

Put your lips to my lips...I'm off the ground
Kissing you gives me an otherworldly feeling.

I'll put my arms round your neck
I'll wrap my arms around your neck.

We'll waltz to the counter
We'll dance a waltz around the room until we reach the counter.

Get our coats outa' check
After making sure our coats are safe, we'll return to our dance.

It's night: let's make love
It's nighttime, and we should make love.

And we can talk about it when the morning comes It'll come It always does
We can discuss what has happened during the night once the morning arrives, as it always does come eventually.

We'll push it around now whether it's right or wrong
We'll deliberate on what we're struggling with, irrespective of whether it's the right or wrong thing to do.

Wrong? It never was
There was never any wrong involved.

Why? Just because
There was no specific reason for why it wasn't wrong; it just wasn't.

We'll talk about it when the morning comes It'll come It always does
We'll have an opportunity to discuss everything more fully in the morning, as it always comes eventually.

Hush, don't say a word You'll wake the fish, you'll scare the birds
Shhh, let's not talk too loud; we'll disturb the animals in their sleep.

Don't disturb the song of the nighthawk Let the crickets talk
Let's not spoil the tranquility of the night; we should let nature's sounds be our accompaniment.

Down lovers' lane between the cars
We'll take a stroll along the street known for lovers' romantic walks.

We'll hold the moon and freeze the stars
We'll embrace each other under the moonlight and take a moment to appreciate the beauty of the starry sky.

We'll tell ol' Luna to shine bright Eclipse the sun, kill the light
We'll ask the moon to shine as bright as it can and outshine the sun, so that we can enjoy the darkness of the night.

It's night: let's make love
It's nighttime, and we should make love.

And we can
There's nothing stopping us from doing so.
