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”
I'll fake it through the day
With some help from Johnny Walker Red
And the cold pain behind my eyes
That shoots back through my head
With two tickets torn in half
In a lot with nothing to do
But it's all right, because some enchanted night
I'll be with you
Tarot cards and the lines in my hand
Tell me I'm wrong, but they're untrue
I got plans for both of us
That involve a trip out of town
To a place I've seen in a magazine
That you left lying around
I can't hold my liquor but
I keep a good attitude
Because it's all right, some enchanted night
I'll be with you
And though you'd rather see me gone
Then to see there come the day
I'll be waiting for you anyway
Next door, the TV's flashing
Blue frames on the wall
Its a comedy from the seventies
With a lead no one recalls
He vanished into oblivion
It's easy to do
And I cried a sea when you talked to me
The day you said we were through
But it's all right, some enchanted night
I'll be with you
With some help from Johnny Walker Red
And the cold pain behind my eyes
That shoots back through my head
With two tickets torn in half
In a lot with nothing to do
But it's all right, because some enchanted night
I'll be with you
Tarot cards and the lines in my hand
Tell me I'm wrong, but they're untrue
I got plans for both of us
That involve a trip out of town
To a place I've seen in a magazine
That you left lying around
I can't hold my liquor but
I keep a good attitude
Because it's all right, some enchanted night
I'll be with you
And though you'd rather see me gone
Then to see there come the day
I'll be waiting for you anyway
Next door, the TV's flashing
Blue frames on the wall
Its a comedy from the seventies
With a lead no one recalls
He vanished into oblivion
It's easy to do
And I cried a sea when you talked to me
The day you said we were through
But it's all right, some enchanted night
I'll be with you
