Nightlife
Old Daisy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But there is something bout the way you feel when you see the city
As the lights come up as the sun goes down
And in the nightlife look at all you see
People laughing, people dance, holding glasses, holding hands
It's quite a scene, being caught in the midst of everything
If I could build a night life and welcome everyone aboard the streets would be crowded everyone's allowed, music on every corner
By that I mean the days Grandma was young
I would string up every light outside and let the cool breeze blow
Oh this night is getting better as we go
And late romancing at the night's end would be a kiss on my front door
Leave your telephones behind this rounds on me
We don't need any sort of technology once you see the nightlife
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
I wonder what people would say if I got right up on the stage
Pulled the moon down by a string, started a riot in the streets
There's no such thing as brutal violence in this world I like to call my dreams
But it'd be nice if we could sing, doesn't have to be in perfect harmony
Just make it loud cause everyone knows nothing beats
The feeling of swaying back-and-forth singing of life and love and all its miseries
If I could build a night life and welcome everyone aboard the streets would be crowded everyone's allowed, music on every corner
Out on dates like it's the Stone Age
By that I mean the days Grandma was young
I would string up every light outside and let the cool breeze blow
Oh this night is getting better as we go
And late romancing at the night's end would be a kiss on my front door
Leave your telephones behind this rounds on me
We don't need any sort of technology once you see the nightlife
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
Oh this night is getting better as we go
This night this night is getting better as we go
This night this night this night is getting better as we go
This night this night is getting better as we go
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
It's all here, you can do anything you want
You are here, you can be anything you want
The lyrics to Old Daisy's song Nightlife seem to explore the idea of being caught in the midst of everything that happens in the nightlife. The singer acknowledges that they have always been reluctant to indulge in the nightlife but recognizes an unexplained allure. They describe the city coming to life as the sun sets and the lights come on, and the atmosphere that ensues, with people laughing, dancing, and holding hands. This experience seems to be what makes the nightlife so appealing to the singer despite their initial reluctance to experience it. If they could build their version of a perfect night out, it would involve music on every corner, with people out on dates and everyone allowed. The singer envisions a night where everyone is present and in the moment, leaving their technology behind while romancing late into the night.
The lyrics also touch on how the singer desires to be on stage and make an impact on the world around them. To achieve this, they want to create a world where everyone can sing out loud and find joy in swaying back-and-forth while singing about life and love, and all its miseries. The singer dreams of a world without brutal violence, where anything is possible, and one can be anyone they want to be. This song seems to be about stepping out of one's comfort zone and entering into a world of endless possibilities.

Siempre he dicho que la vida nocturna no es para mí
pero hay algo sobre cómo te sientes cuando ves la ciudad
mientras las luces se encienden cuando el sol se pone
Y en la vida nocturna mira todo lo que ves
gente riendo, gente bailando, agarrando copas, tomados de la mano
es toda una escena, ser atrapado en medio de todo
[coro]
Si pudiera construir una vida nocturna y darles la bienvenida a todos en las calles, estaríamos llenos de gente, música en cada esquina
en fechas como si fuera la Edad de Piedra
con eso quiero decir los días que la abuela era joven
Encendería cada luz afuera y dejaría que la brisa fresca sople
oh, esta noche está mejorando a medida que avanzamos
y un romance tardío al final de la noche sería un beso en mi puerta
Deja tus teléfonos detrás de esta ronda en mí
no necesitamos ningún tipo de tecnología una vez que veas la vida nocturna
Todo está aquí, puedes hacer lo que quieras
estás aquí, puedes ser lo que quieras

Me pregunto qué diría la gente si me subiera al escenario
derribó la luna por una cuerda, comenzó una revuelta en las calles
No hay tal violencia brutal en este mundo que me gusta llamar mis sueños
Pero sería bueno si pudiéramos cantar, no tiene que estar en perfecta armonía
solo hazlo fuerte porque todos saben que nada late
la sensación de balancearse de un lado a otro cantando la vida y el amor y todas sus miserias
[repite el coro]
Todo está aquí, puedes hacer lo que quieras
Estás aquí, puedes ser lo que quieras

[puente]
Oh, esta noche está mejorando a medida que avanzamos
Esta noche esta noche está mejorando a medida que avanzamos
Esta noche esta noche esta noche está mejorando a medida que avanzamos
Esta noche esta noche está mejorando a medida que avanzamos
