The Night Is Young Lyrics
Oh yeah, when I needed you to stay
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young
Baby's no good to me
I tried every harmony
Baby's on trial tonight
I know where to draw the line
Baby, I got nothen to say
I got nothen to say
Baby's so good to me
He calls it our destiny
Baby's my second best
We're just such a blissful mess
Baby, I got nothen to say yeah
I got nothen to say
But maybe I've got something to say yeah
I've got something to say
Yeah
Oh yeah, when I needed you to stay
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young
Call it our destiny
Shaking your karma tree
Leave all my things alone
Fruit grows for everyone
Baby where to now?
Let's drive till we hit the south
I got many dreams down there
And Lord knows I could share something
It's better than nothen
You don't care
But maybe I've got something to say
Ive got something to say
Yeah
Oh yeah, when I needed you to stay
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young
I tried every harmony
Baby's on trial tonight
I know where to draw the line
Baby, I got nothen to say
I got nothen to say
He calls it our destiny
Baby's my second best
We're just such a blissful mess
Baby, I got nothen to say yeah
I got nothen to say
But maybe I've got something to say yeah
I've got something to say
Yeah
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young
Shaking your karma tree
Leave all my things alone
Fruit grows for everyone
Let's drive till we hit the south
I got many dreams down there
And Lord knows I could share something
It's better than nothen
You don't care
But maybe I've got something to say
Ive got something to say
Yeah
You drove your car the other way
And oh me
Don't you worry about me
I got a pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve
And the night is young

It's easy to make sense of this song. It's about someone who needed her lover to stay, through a tough time perhaps, but instead he 'drove his car the other way.' dejectedly she insists she has a 'pocket full of wisdom up my sleeve' with the line 'and the night is young' it gets me thinking that the worse is still to come, there are many dark times ahead.
I agree, although I thought 'the night is young' meant that she still has her life ahead of her, so she still has possibilities and good times to look forward too.

It's like when you see couples fighting in the street, often on nights out. You don't know what's happening but they seem to be going in different directions.
