It Ain't Even Midnight
Late-Night Escapade: A Southern Love Story Under the Moonlight
Lyrics
I'll pick you up when you're ready to go, I'll pull in keep my lights down low
I'm ready to pick you up and keep a low profile by dimming my vehicle's lights.
It's gettin' late and your momma don't know, that I'm comin' around
It's late, and your mother isn't aware that I'll be visiting.
You can slide on up on that front seat, time stops when you're riding with me
You can join me in the front seat, and time feels suspended when we're together.
You got your feet on my dash, my hand on your lap, the radio up playing old Johnny Cash
You're relaxed with your feet on the dashboard, and there's an intimate closeness between us while we listen to old Johnny Cash songs on the radio.
You go the windows down, you're dancing around like that
You're carefree, enjoying the moment with the windows down and dancing.
It ain't even midnight
It's not yet midnight.
It ain't even midnight
It's still not midnight.
You're the cutest thing that I've ever seen
You're incredibly attractive, like a picturesque dream from South Carolina.
A South Carolina lookin' daydream
We're on an open road without any specific destination.
An open road with nowhere to be
We're uncertain where the night's adventures might lead us.
No way of tellin' where the night might lead
Similar to line 4, indicating the closeness and intimacy between the two while enjoying music and the moment.
You got your feet on my dash, my hand on your lap, the radio up playing old Johnny Cash
You're carefree, enjoying the moment with the windows down and dancing.
You go the windows down, you're dancing around like that
It's not yet midnight.
It ain't even midnight
It's still not midnight.
It ain't even midnight
The persona doesn't want this night to end, expressing a desire to escape for the weekend with you.
I don't want this night to ever end
They want a moment to steal a kiss under the moonlight.
Wanna get you away for the weekend
Expressing the youthfulness of the night and the uncertainty it brings.
Steal a kiss in the moonlight glow
