And Then Some Lyrics

Found an empty room, locked the door shut
Party raged on, you could only hear the bass thump
With two empty cups, my heart, it all came pouring out
You’re white Russian just let me be a boy scout

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?
Since you came back, I see things differently
And this love came so easily
We were talking in the dark but it’s so clear to me

I adore you cause you don’t care where I came from
Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then some

Face to face, tell me what you see
I’m the town crier and you’re reluctant royalty
And I understand just where you get second thoughts
I’m New Years’ Eve and you’re waiting for the ball to drop

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?
When you dream, do I make the screen?
And this love came so easily
Can you see it shining there up on the marquee?

I adore you cause you don’t care where I came from
Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?
When I’m gone, do you think about me?
When you dream, do I make the screen?
We were talking in the dark

I adore you because you don’t care where I came from
Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then (some)

I adore you because you don’t care where I came from
Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some
And then some and then some

Found an empty room, locked the door shut
Party raged on, you could only hear the bass thump
With two empty cups, my heart, it all came pouring out
You’re white Russian just let me be a boy scout

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?
Since you came back, I see things differently
And this love came so easily
We were talking in the dark but it’s so clear to me

Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then some

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?

And when I’m gone, do you think about me?
When I’m gone, do you think about me?
When you dream, do I make the screen?
We were talking in the dark

I adore you because you don’t care where I came from
Just kiss me in the dark while my lips are numb
And I love every inch of you and then some
And then some and then (some)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is either about a new relationship between a boy and a girl but the girl is hesitant to fully jump in and make the commitment and the boy is trying to convince her of his love for her or it's about a boy who wishes he was with a girl and he's asking her if she feels the same way about him. Either way, it's about the boy wanting to start a romantic connection with this girl. The first verse tells the story of them meeting and first getting to know each other at a party. The line in the pre-chorus 'Since you came back, I see things differently' does mess with my overall idea of this girl being new to him so maybe it's someone he already knew that has just come back into his life and he's now starting to have serious romantic thoughts about her since they came back which is a new development.

The second verse tells us more about their relationship. He portrays himself as quite a loud personality (comparing himself to being a town crier and New Years Eve) while he refers to her as being more reserved and uncertain.

I must say though. The chorus to this song is glorious and so heartwarming, the Arkells know how to make really great Choruses even when their verses are a bit weaker
