Tonight
Suzy Q Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tonight I feel cold inside
Tonight
Tonight I want you by my side
Tell me what to do
Tell me what to do
To feel better
Tell me what to do
To feel warmer
The light
It makes me feel strange at time
Tonight
I'll give my soul and you will mind
When you're here with me
When you're here with me
I feel better
When you're here with me
When you're here with me
I feel warmer
Before I'll know it
You're by my side
You'll make love to me
For the first time
Before you bring me
To ecstasy
You'll whisper to me
That you love me
The light
The light that's shining in your eyes
The light
Gives me the strength I need tonight
Tell me what to do
Tell me what to do
To feel better
Tell me what to do
Tell me what to do
To feel warmer
You
Are everything I need tonight
You
You'll make feel in paradise
When you're here with me
When you're here with me
I feel better
When you're here with me
When you're here with me
I feel warmer
Before I'll know it
You're by my side
You'll make love to me
For the first time
Before you bring me
To ecstasy
You'll whisper to me
That you love me
Tonight
Tonight I feel love inside
Tonight
Tonight I got you by my side
Now I got your love
Now I got your love
I feel better
Now I got your love
Now I got your love
I feel warmer
Before I'll know it
You're by my side
You'll make love to me
For the first time
Before you bring me
To ecstasy
You'll whisper to me
That you love me
Before I'll know it
You're by my side
You'll make love to me
For the first time
Before you bring me
To ecstasy
The song "Tonight" by Suzy Q depicts a yearning for intimacy and comfort. The opening lines "Tonight I feel cold inside" reveal a sense of emotional emptiness and the desire to escape it. The repetition of "Tell me what to do" communicates a need for guidance and support. The singer seeks warmth and comfort in the presence of another person, as seen in the lines "Tonight I want you by my side" and "You are everything I need tonight." The repeated refrain "When you're here with me, I feel better, when you're here with me, I feel warmer" emphasizes the transformative power of connection and intimacy.
The bridge of the song portrays a romantic encounter, with lines like "You'll make love to me for the first time" and "Before you bring me to ecstasy, you'll whisper to me that you love me." This section is evocative of the heightened emotions and vulnerability that come with the first experience of physical intimacy. The final verse emphasizes the transformative nature of love, as the singer declares "Now I got your love, I feel better, now I got your love, I feel warmer." The song ultimately suggests that the presence and affection of another person can provide the warmth and comfort necessary to dispel feelings of loneliness and interconnectedness.
