The lyrics to side-B's song "TONIGHT" convey a sense of longing, vulnerability, and a desire for solace and comfort. The opening lines express a feeling of being trapped in a dark room, with no fresh air coming in through the closed window, and being stuck in a cycle of listening to the same sad music. The singer seems to be unaware of the depth of their own emotional dependence as they cling to something or someone for support without fully realizing it.

The imagery of avoiding eye contact when feeling hurt and no longer wanting to dream reflects a sense of disillusionment and resignation, possibly stemming from past experiences of disappointment or betrayal. The mention of hurriedly applying makeup that could easily be washed away suggests a superficial attempt to keep up appearances or hide one's true emotions, despite being capable of letting go and embracing vulnerability.
The chorus repeats the plea for acceptance and comfort, promising to provide anything the other person desires, whether it's the scent of the bustling city, a midnight-colored lipstick, or simply a warm presence to chase away the loneliness and sadness. The final lines reiterate the desire to make things right and bring an end to the tears, underscoring the earnestness of the offer and the willingness to do whatever it takes to provide solace and support. Overall, the lyrics of "TONIGHT" convey a sense of emotional complexity, yearning, and a deep-rooted desire for connection and understanding in the face of pain and uncertainty.
