Just Tonight
coldrain Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just tonight
Can we leave it all behind
Let's drive into the night
We don't have to plan on where to go
Cause all we need is each other's company
Nothing else will mean a thing
For tonight it's just you and I
As the city falls asleep

I've been wondering
What if you were never there when I got home?
Could I find a way to stay sane and carry on?
I've been wondering
What if you could change your path?
Would you change it now?
You could find a better man... with a better plan

I'm sorry for the days I wrecked but
I promise I will make it up to you
I promise I will make it up

I hope you know
I love you

Overall Meaning

"Just Tonight" by coldrain is a song that speaks to the desire to leave behind our worries and just enjoy the present moment with someone we care about. The first verse talks about escaping from the responsibilities and stresses of our daily lives by driving into the unknown with a companion. The lyrics suggest that in the company of a loved one, nothing else matters except for the time spent together. As the city goes to sleep, the singer hopes that they can live in the moment, forsaking tomorrow entirely.

In the second verse, the singer ruminates on the consequences of losing the person they care about. They imagine chaos and question whether they would have the strength to continue on without them. The lyrics further ask whether the addressee of the song desires change in their life, and whether they think they could find someone better than the singer.

The chorus brings the song back to its central message: “Just Tonight,” a plea to forget about the past and future and focus entirely on the present moment shared with the person the singer loves.

Overall, "Just Tonight" is a song about appreciating the people we have in our lives, and living in the moment to make the most of our relationships while we have them.

Line by Line Meaning

Just tonight
For this one night only

Can we leave it all behind
Can we forget about everything else?

Let's drive into the night
Let's go on a spontaneous drive

We don't have to plan on where to go
We can go wherever the night takes us

Cause all we need is each other's company
We don't need anything else as long as we have each other

Nothing else will mean a thing
Nothing else will matter tonight

For tonight it's just you and I
Tonight it's only about us

As the city falls asleep
While the city settles down for the night

I've been wondering
I have been thinking lately

What if you were never there when I got home?
What would happen if you weren't there for me when I needed you?

Could I find a way to stay sane and carry on?
Would I be able to handle it and move forward?
