After Hours Lyrics by Ellis

2023

[Verse 1]
Smokey rooms and late-night blues
I need someone to get me through to morning (Ooh)
After midnight, see my dark side
Take a wild ride, so essential
It's my calling (Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you wanna drink me down?
Baby, what’s your poison? (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
I’m so into numbing out
Come with me while I’m falling
Let’s get on it

[Chorus]
Take the night
Chemical reactions happen after hours
(After hours)
So take the night
Gimme a distraction, I can’t take a downer, after hours
We could take the night

[Verse 2]
Lonely hearts and easy love
We walk home in the dark before the sunrise (Ooh)
Stimulated, I’m so jaded
I can’t find the words to tell you what it feels like
But it feels right, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you wanna keep me up
Like there’s no tomorrow? (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
It’s another, ‘nother late one
Dive into the unknown
It’s just us now

[Chorus]
Take the night
Chemical reactions happen after hours (Yeah)
(After hours)
So take the night
Gimme a distraction, I can’t take a downer, after hours
We could take the night

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (Baby, take the night)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
What have we got to lose?
We could take the night

[Chorus]
Chemical reactions happen after hours
So take the night
Gimme a distraction, I can’t take a downer (Ooh), after hours
We could take the night

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (Ooh)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (We could take the night)
Oh-oh (Yeah), oh-oh-oh-oh
What have we got to lose?
We could take the night
