Just for the Night Lyrics by Mark Duggan

Just for the Night

0

[Verse 1]
I went out driving last night
Without anywhere to be going to
Just another late Friday night
Without all that much to do
Well I slipped in the side door of a pub
Where I thought the music sounded alright
Seen somebody standing up against the wall
Said she was looking for a light
[Verse 2]
Told me her name was Anna
As she finished and we walked in
Asked if I was new round town
Said your face ain't one I've ever seen
Well I told her I'm four years here
I don't go out 'cause my friends ain't here no more
She said "Don't you worry about that tonight"
And pulled me out on that floor
[Chorus]
We were spinning round and round with the music
Like it was the only thing left to do
Mister ain't nothing in this world like the moment
Someone takes the lonely outta you
[Verse 3]
Bought her a drink I didn't recognise
She moved a little bit closer to me
We laughed about how in life somethings
Are never how you want them to be
Well she said she was still holding onto her dreams
That she knew time was slowly tearing down
So we toasted our little broken histories
And then we poured out another round
[Verse 4]
Barman called time and we went walking
Back to where she was staying for the night
Sat on the edge of her bed just talking
Did a few more things before the morning light
Well any cautious inclination slipped me
When I felt her hands going down to my belt
Morning came crawling up dirty and slow
Til I didn't know what it was I felt
[Chorus]
My head was spinning round and round with the traffic outside
I didn't know what the hell to do
Mister ain't nothing in this world like the feeling
Of holding someone just as lonely as you
[Verse 5]
I could feel her wake up beside me
Watched her stretch out her bones and cough
She moved back in and put an arm round me
I didn't want to ask her to stop
Well we laid there 'bout an hour or two
She said "I need something for my head
I'm gonna get up and make some food"
So I tried to find my pants under the bed
[Verse 6]
We were both sitting at her kitchen table hanging
She gave me a plate of food I tried to eat
We didn't say much except when she asked if I thought
I'd be alright finding my feet
Well I guess we both could get going again
If we only knew which way to run
Else we'd find ourselves back in the same bar
A few months later looking for a little more fun
[Outro]
Just a little something to waste some precious time
Well mister I'm still tryna figure out whether it was hers or mine
