Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Walking down the street go straight ahead
Cause you you know I'll be there
Time will pass we'll miss the good old day
Nothing's left but future that's okay
Cause you you know I'll be there
Just tonight just tonight
Just tonight just tonight
Sleep in your arm
Just tonight just tonight
We are in our dreams awake yeah
Freeze the moment save the memories
Store the pictures find the melodies
Cause you you know I'll be there
Just tonight just tonight
Wish for the star
Just tonight just tonight
Sleep in your arm
Just tonight just tonight
We are in our dreams awake yeah
From the space I see your face
Through the cloud I write your name
Wait me in a promise land
Just tonight just tonight
Wish for the star
Just tonight just tonight
Sleep in your arm
Just tonight just tonight
We are in our dreams awake yeah
Just tonight just tonight
Wish for the star
Just tonight just tonight
Sleep in your arm
Just tonight just tonight
We are in our dreams awake yeah
Just tonight just tonight
The song "Just For Tonight" by P.N.S is a nostalgic ode to the past, a hopeful look towards the future, and a plea to savor the present moment. The first verse begins by asking if the listener remembers everything the singer has said, and encourages them to keep walking forward knowing that the singer will be there for them. The lyrics then acknowledge the passing of time and the loss of the past, but reassure the listener that the future is bright and the singer will still be there for them. The chorus repeats the phrase "just tonight" three times, emphasizing the temporary and fleeting nature of the moment, but also the importance of appreciating it fully. The lyrics encourage the listener to wish upon a star, sleep in someone's arms, and "be in our dreams awake," embracing the idea of living fully in the present moment.
The second verse expands upon this theme of cherishing memories and being present in the moment. The lyrics suggest freezing moments and saving memories, taking pictures and finding melodies to hold onto. The singer once again reassures the listener that they will be there for them, no matter what. The bridge of the song takes a somewhat more fantastical turn, with references to seeing the listener's face from space, writing their name through the clouds, and asking them to meet in a "promise land." The chorus then repeats once again, with the message of savoring the moment and living fully in the present.
Overall, "Just For Tonight" is a wistful and dreamy song with a message of appreciation for the fleeting nature of life and the importance of holding onto memories and fully embracing the present moment.
