Janis Ian - This Night lyrics
[Janis Ian - This Night lyrics]
Here I am dressed for the ball
Does he still like me? Will he call?
Tonight's the night
Will he remember my name?
I've written his all over the sky
Tonight's the night i'm gonna make him mine
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round
And the bells will ring on high
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
This night will be mine forever now
'Cause forever is his name
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(La la la la la, la la la la la)
(La la la la la, la la la la la)
Here I am dancing at last
Holding my own even whеn the band plays fast
Tonight's the night
What if the band plays too slow?
Will hе forget me and leave me stranded?
How do you know just how far to go?
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round (La la la la la)
And the bells will ring on high
(La la la la la)
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
(La la la la la) this night
(This night) will be mine
Forever now (Be mine)
'Cause forever is his name (This night)
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me)
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me)
Here I am ready for bed
Do I look pretty or just well-fed?
Tonight's the night
What if I look like a fool
Maybe I just better wait and see
What he's gonna do?
Or maybe he's scared, too
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round
And the bells will ring on high
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
This night (This night) will be mine
Forever now (Be mine)
'Cause forever is his name (This night)
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(This night, Be mine)
(This night, I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, Be mine)
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, ooh)
(This night, I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, Be mine)
Does he still like me? Will he call?
Tonight's the night
Will he remember my name?
I've written his all over the sky
Tonight's the night i'm gonna make him mine
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round
And the bells will ring on high
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
This night will be mine forever now
'Cause forever is his name
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(La la la la la, la la la la la)
(La la la la la, la la la la la)
Here I am dancing at last
Holding my own even whеn the band plays fast
Tonight's the night
What if the band plays too slow?
Will hе forget me and leave me stranded?
How do you know just how far to go?
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round (La la la la la)
And the bells will ring on high
(La la la la la)
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
(La la la la la) this night
(This night) will be mine
Forever now (Be mine)
'Cause forever is his name (This night)
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me)
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me)
Here I am ready for bed
Do I look pretty or just well-fed?
Tonight's the night
What if I look like a fool
Maybe I just better wait and see
What he's gonna do?
Or maybe he's scared, too
And the lights will go
Swirling 'round and 'round
And the bells will ring on high
And I'll laugh until I cry the night away
This night (This night) will be mine
Forever now (Be mine)
'Cause forever is his name (This night)
And the lights will keep swirling
And burning up the day tonight's the night
(This night, Be mine)
(This night, I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, Be mine)
(I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, ooh)
(This night, I think he loves me, yes
I think he loves me, Be mine)
