For The Night
Sublime with Rome Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you wake up in the morning
It′s that look inside your eyes
I can hear the bedroom calling
Baby it ain't far, we can get a room tonight
We don′t care about no nonsense
There's so much goin' on in life
While everybody′s busy watching other people′s lives
And we're just tryin′ to get ours right

So come over by the fire
Just to keep this lit
All this livin' got us tired
But it′s no regrets
You put your lovin' on me
I shoot it back, ricochet
Girl, come over by the fire
So we can keep this lit

Cause I′ll fire guns for ya
Rob liquor stores for ya
Yeah, there's nothing, nothing I wouldn't do
Yeah, I′ll go to war for ya
Straight up go poor for ya
Yeah, there′s nothing, nothing I wouldn't do
Just to come back to ya
Just to come back to ya
For the night

I got time for your emotions
I don′t wanna see you cry
I got plenty conversation
My time isn't wasted
Watching you feel good tonight
It′s your song up on the station
And we don't even know no words
I wanna hear you roll your R′s
Singing Spanish in the car
Dime algo hermosa tonight

So come over by the fire
Just to keep this lit
All this livin' got us tired
But it's no regrets
You put your lovin′ on me
I shoot it back, ricochet
Girl, come over by the fire
So we can keep this lit

Cause I′ll fire guns for ya
Rob liquor stores for ya
Yeah, there's nothing, nothing I wouldn′t do
Yeah, I'll go to war for ya
Straight up go poor for ya
Yeah, there′s nothing, nothing I wouldn't do
Just to come back to ya
Just to come back to ya
For the night

Oh, for the night
For the night
Yeah, it′s really hard to see the light
When you're, when you're not by my side
For the night
For the night, whoa
It′s really hard to see the light
But you, but you know that I

I′m pulling guns for ya
Rob liquor stores for ya
Yeah, there's nothing, there′s nothing I wouldn't do
Yeah, I′ll go to war for ya
Straight up go poor for ya
Yeah, there's nothing, nothing I wouldn′t do
Just to come back to ya




Just to come back to ya
For the night

Overall Meaning

The song "For The Night" by Sublime with Rome is about being in a relationship where two people prioritize and make time for each other. The chorus sets the tone for the song, describing the extent to which the singer's love and devotion for their significant other goes. They would "fire guns for ya" and even "go poor" for them, emphasizing that nothing is too extreme when it comes to their love. The verse then details more about the life they lead and how much they prioritize their relationship. The singer talks about how they don't care about the distractions of life or about what other people are doing--they just want to focus on getting their relationship right.


In the second verse, the singer touches on the importance of communication and spending quality time together. They mention wanting to hear their partner speak in Spanish, emphasizing their desire to connect on a deeper level. The bridge then brings back the chorus, emphasizing again how much they would do for their love, and how difficult it is when they're not by their side.


This song is about the kind of love that is all-consuming and obsessive, where the singer would do anything and everything for their partner. It's about prioritizing that relationship above all else and cherishing the moments they spend together.

This album is very underrated. Back in the day.. you might steal 1 or 3 songs off an album, but you should buy this one. They did a good job on almost every song. Let's fuel this art.

Sublime w/Rome, Stick Figure, Dirty Heads, 311, Pepper, Slightly Stupid... ect. What a cool time to be alive.
