lyrics

Sometimes, in a night, you meet someone you like and you think
The world’s glowing up in a shimmering haze of what could be
And last night I met you, and I liked the way you looked at my face
All the lights mixed with drinks mixed with people in the right kind of place
Possibilities
Am I diving too deep?

Honey, I’ve been alone my whole life, and I don’t think that will change
Tied to our own bodies, mind circling back to our own pain
So, it’s a magical night that takes me out of my own life and shakes -
And you seem so kind, honey, we could pass the time until it breaks

Sometimes, in a night, you meet someone you like and you think
A friend of a friend of a friend visiting your city
And I liked the way you looked and I liked the way you talked
And I like the way you smiled, and I wanted us to walk
Hand in hand out of that bar, into the rest of our lives
But sometimes it’s just a night
Sometimes it’s just a night

Nothing lasts forever
But while it lasts, I want to dive under
