Next Time
Le Boom Lyrics

It suddenly ended this morning
The relationship abruptly and unexpectedly came to an end.

For the last time maybe
Possibly indicating that the relationship is over for good.

I walked home
The singer left the situation and headed home.

The noise of the street hummed off-key
The sounds of the street felt dissonant and out of tune.

It was as the shower water splashed me softly
While taking a shower, the realization hit the artist gently.

I realised that I didn't want the smell of you off me
The singer came to the understanding that they wanted to hold onto the memories and presence of the other person.

It was like the drifting smoke just hung in the air that night
The atmosphere of the night was filled with lingering smoke, creating a certain mood.

The way the cold clung to our clothes
The cold weather stuck to the clothing, emphasizing the physicality of the situation.

Like a desperate lover might
Similar to how a desperate lover would hold onto their partner.

I wasn't even listening to be honest
The artist admits to not paying attention or fully engaging in the conversation.

But I tried
Despite the lack of interest, the singer made an effort to participate.

I'm beginning to think you are the one making the moon shine this bright
The artist starts to believe that the other person is responsible for bringing joy and brightness into their life.

But fuck it man anyway
Expressing a nonchalant attitude towards the situation.

Just pass us that plate again
Requesting for more of something enjoyable, perhaps referring to a substance or activity.

Sure we all said we wouldn't get into this state again
It was previously agreed upon that they wouldn't find themselves in this situation again.

You'll be dead long enough
Implying that there is plenty of time for negative emotions in the future.

And there'll be time for the hate again
Acknowledging that there may be opportunities for negative feelings in the future.

I look around at these gorgeous faces
Observing the attractive individuals present.

The absolute state of them
Commenting on the overall disarray or chaotic state of the people.

And even when it was serious it was still fucking craic
Highlighting the fact that even in serious moments, there was still a sense of fun and enjoyment.

We spoke about our love for each other
Engaging in conversations about mutual affection.

And those not coming back
Referencing individuals who are no longer a part of their lives or who have passed away.

We made plans and said stupid shit that we couldn't take back
The singer and their companions made future plans and said things that couldn't be undone or unsaid.

And we'll do it all again the next time
Expressing the intention to repeat the same actions and experiences in the future.

Don't look at your phones lads
Advising the group to avoid checking their mobile devices.

They'll just fill you with sorrow
Looking at one's phone can lead to feelings of sadness or regret.

I don't know if the sleep in my eyes is from today or tomorrow
Uncertainty about whether the tiredness in their eyes is due to the present day or the days to come.

And yis don't have to go home
Assuring the group that they are not required to leave.

I still have some happiness you can borrow
Offering their own happiness for others to temporarily take solace in.

I just know there's a beauty in this room that will outlast the morning
Recognizing the presence of something beautiful in the room that will endure beyond the morning.

Somewhere in the orange glow
Referring to a specific area or moment bathed in an orange light.

They played a song we hadn't heard yet
A song was played that was unfamiliar to the artist and the group.

I looked around and wondered how on earth I deserved this
Feeling a sense of gratitude and amazement at the situation.

We pointed our cans up to the sky and laughed until it hurt us
Raising their drinks towards the sky and laughing intensely, even to the point of experiencing physical pain.

If loving you is a lesson
Considering love as a learning experience.

Then I still haven't learnt it
Implying that the artist still hasn't fully understood or grasped the concept of love.

And even when it was serious it was still fucking craic
Reiterating the notion that even during serious moments, there was still an element of fun and entertainment.

We screamed into each others ears
Engaging in loud and excited communication with each other.

With the moon on our backs
The moon's presence behind them, symbolizing a shared experience or adventure.

We put our arms around each other
The artist and their companions embraced each other.

And agreed on a pact
Coming to a mutual agreement or commitment.

That we'll do it all again the next time
Deciding to repeat the same experiences and moments in the future.
