Let's Go Out Tonight Lyrics
Where the cars go by
All the day and night
Why don't you say
What's so wrong tonight
Pray for me
Praying for the light
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight
Where the lights all shine
Like I knew they would
Be mine all mine
Baby I'll be good
Pray for me
Praying for the light
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight
I know a place
Where everything's alright, alright
Let's go out tonight
Where the cars go by
All the day and night
Why don't you say
What's so wrong tonight
I pray for love
Coming out alright, yeah
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight, yeah
Baby, Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight
Tonight, tonight, yeah, tonight
All the day and night
Why don't you say
What's so wrong tonight
Pray for me
Praying for the light
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight
Like I knew they would
Be mine all mine
Baby I'll be good
Pray for me
Praying for the light
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight
Where everything's alright, alright
Let's go out tonight
All the day and night
Why don't you say
What's so wrong tonight
I pray for love
Coming out alright, yeah
Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight, yeah
Baby, Baby, Baby, let's go out tonight

Tinseltown in the Rain

From a Late Night Train

The Downtown Lights

Stay Close

Tomorrow Morning

This beautiful fragile song outlines the desperation of a failing relationship, in my interpretation. The protagonist is clinging onto a situation that he knows is doomed (‘pray for me…’) and hopes that taking his partner out into downtown lights of Glasgow will rekindle something (maybe that’s where they met?), although he realises that it probably won’t.
