Late At Night Lyrics
I close my door at night
But they get in all right
And she turns on the light
I held her hands so tight
'Cause words don't come out right
And she sees things at night
Me, I'm closer to the door
I don't get scared no more
But I don't know the score
If I could hold them in my hand
I'd make them understand
I'm not a haunted mind
I'm not a thoughtless kind
If I could put them in a jar
I know they wouldn't scar
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I close my door at night
But she gets in all right
So I turn on the light
I held her hand too tight
Too hard to make it right
So I could sleep at night
If I could hold them in my hand
I'd make them understand
I'm not a haunted mind
I'm not a thoughtless kind
If I could put them in a jar
I know they wouldn't scar
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I'd do it if I could
I hope you know I would
I think this song is talking about a girl having terrible nightmares. And how he would do anything to make them stop, but he cant even find the right words to say to make it better so he just holds her hand all night to show her that he is there for her.
I think this song is about someone struggling with their feelings. They don't wanna face the idea of falling for someone. They're terrified of loving and getting hurt and don't know how to handle it. They don't know how to show it and don't want to show it because they're scared of being hurt. When he says "I close my door at night but she gets in alright" It's like he's trying not to fall for her or think about her but she is all he can think about. This part "I held her hand too tight too hard to make it right" is how he's trying to show her that he has feelings for her and cares about her by holding her hand cause he doesn't know how to express himself in words. It's a really beautiful song. It was perfect for Jordan in my so called life. One of my favorite scenes.
one of those essential, eternal 90's moments
three cheers for those moments
when jordan catalano takes angela chase's hand, my heart stopped. it was the sweetest thing i ever saw in my life. i think this song represents their romance. this song is amazing.
no comments? this song is my favourite
this song is one of the best ive ever heard, i just want everyone to hear it
I love this song...why haven't people posted more comments?! Let's get on the ball here ppl.
This song is from the most romantic scene in television history. In My-So called Life, when Jordan takes Angela's hand. I love this song. It is pretty.
i gotta admit the only reason i ever heard of this band was because of my so-called life...and by the way they were also the guest stars, they were the band that played at the party. but then i learned that they opened for counting crows in one of their concerts, and then hey i was hooked on the lads.
My So-Called Life is the best teen show ever. Everytime I hear this song I picture Jordan grabbing Angela's hand to hold. I love this song and My So-Called Life.
