Nightime
Pretty Poison Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come, feel the steady rhythm of the nightlife
And hear excitement in the air.
Baby, when the night comes down,
You know where I can be found,
Dancing in a midnight fantasy.

Chorus:
In the Nightime
Blame it on the Nightime.
In the Nightime
Baby, that's the right time.

I feel a strange desire in the moonlight
Dreams of another dance in my eyes.
Baby, when the stars shine bright,
Dance with me all through the night.
Be my lover til the light of day.

Chorus:
In the Nightime,
Blame it on the Nightime.
In the Nightime yeah,
Baby, that's the right time.
Right time for me.

Nightime is the right time
Nightlife is for me.
Dancing til the break of day,
No place I'd rather be.

Nightime is the right time;
Nightlife is for me.
Dancing til the break of day,
No place I'd rather be.

In the Nightime, blame it on the Nightime.
In the Nightime, baby, that's the right time.
In the Nightime, blame it on the Nightime.
In the Nightime, yeah, baby, that's the right time.
Right time for me.

Nightime is the right time
Nightlife is for me
Nightime is the right time
Nightlife is for me




Nightime
Nightlife is for me.
