Wish we could stay all night
Well, we're gonna have to pay for the hotel, oh well
Least the drinks are free
Oh, I don't know if it's right
But tonight I'm tyin' one on you better believe it

Weekend is in, show time is now
Tell all your friends and bring your mom and them
We'll even put you on a list for a small price, so nice
To see your face again
Yeah, it feels good to finally be feelin' right
I wish we could stay all night

We're burnin' rubber late for the load-in
Rollin' through the radio, passin' the time
Just enough gas to get there, say a prayer
Lord, let this old Ford Fly
It ain't the fame, the money, the game
Gettin' your name on the big marquee
It's all about the song makes your heart thump, feet stomp
The way it's supposed to be
Feels good to finally be feelin' right
Wish we could stay all night

Oh, wish this drink would never end
Hell, I just caught my second wind
Why don't the good stuff ever last
It comes and goes and it goes so fast
They're shuttin' it down and turn on the lights, yeah
Wish we could stay all night

Wish we could stay all night
Can't go home but you can't stay here
Wish we could stay all night
Go on and pop the top on one more beer

Wish we could stay all night
We're gonna have to pay for a hotel, oh well
Wish we could stay all night
Tell all your friends and bring your mom and them
I wish we could stay all night

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
