The Night
The Night Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is it true?
Everything you said
Are you thinking ‘bout me, thinking?

Is it right?
How I'm up all night,
When I'm thinking ‘bout you, thinking
I can see her
Love is strange but I’d
Like to be there
But it don’t feel right

Is it love, that you’re thinking of
When you’re thinking ‘bout me, thinking?

I find it hard, it's like I’m lost
I don’t need anyone

I can see her
Love is strange but I’d
Like to be there
But it don’t feel right
Love is not the only answer I get when I’m thinking of you
When everything you say keeps me up all night

Is this all I
Is this all I can see?
Is this all I
Is this all

I can see her
Love is strange but I’d
Like to be there
But it don’t feel right




Love is not the only answer I get when I’m thinking of you
When everything you say keeps me up all night

Overall Meaning

The Night's song "The Night" describes a toxic but alluring relationship that the singer knows they should have left alone. Despite this awareness, the singer cannot resist the pull of the other person, as hinted at in the opening lines "Love that you're not good for me, when you call I won't decline." The attraction between the two is palpable and immediate, as the singer becomes almost breathless at the mere thought of the other person. The lyrics create a sense of urgency as the two come together for one intense night, with the singer acknowledging that they should have known better but unable to resist the dangerous allure of the other.


The lyrics also imply that this is not the first time the two have engaged in this kind of behavior, as they declare that they will "lie and say this is the last time." The intensity of their connection is emphasized in the way that the singer describes the other person's touch, their moans, and their locked eyes. Despite everything, the singer acknowledges that they "can be lonely," but "not tonight," with the implication being that this one night is worth any potential fallout that may come later.

Go ahead turn off them lights
Turn off the lights as an indication of intimacy

The intimacy is just for one night

A buddy of mine passed from a bike crash a couple months ago he loved this song . He was a hard working guy only 18 years old doing things that some adults we knew where not doing . This song reminds me of him so much he was a crazy guy always partying and the life of the party he lived every day like it was his last because he knew that tomorrow was not promised. Listen to these song lyrics VERY CLOSELY It will give you more advice then anything in this world.If you are reading this I am BEGGING YOU. Please love eachother. When we leave people will only remember who we where . Not what we did . I love you charles buddy I miss you man 💙
