Are You Lonely Tonight
Finding Connection in Lonely Nights: Cheap Trick's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
Sometimes I can tell early in the day
Sometimes, I can sense early in the day.
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny way
Sometimes, I have an intuitive feeling.
When things aren't going right
Recognition that things are not going well.
It looks like just another lonely night
Seems like another night of loneliness.
Wake me when it's over shake me when it's done
Expressing a desire to be awakened or shaken when a difficult time is over.
Maybe when the sun comes up I'll find a place to run
Hopeful that with the sunrise, a solution or escape can be found.
So don't lay there like a fool
Advice not to act foolishly when facing loneliness.
'cause all you have to do is call me
Encouragement to reach out for support by making a call.
Well are you alone tonight
Querying if the listener is currently without company.
Or are you lonely tonight
Asking if the listener is experiencing a sense of loneliness.
Say you're lonely tonight
Requesting acknowledgment of loneliness.
'travel 'round the world seen a million girls
Referencing the experience of traveling and encountering numerous individuals.
I know I've been around nothin' gets me down
Despite life experiences, emphasizing resilience and positivity.
'cause there's someone out there just like you
Belief that there is someone similar to the listener out there.
Someone's out there just like me too
Acknowledging the existence of someone similar to the singer as well.
Well are you alone tonight
Repeating the question about being alone tonight.
Or are you lonely tonight
Repeating the inquiry about experiencing loneliness tonight.
Say you're lonely tonight
Reiterating the request for confirmation of loneliness.
Baby don't let it don't let it get ya
Advising the listener not to succumb to loneliness.
Just say the word and I'll be your cover
Offering to provide support and protection upon request.
I'm gonna try to get there today
Expressing intent to make an effort to be there for the listener today.
Call me and tell me
Requesting a call to be informed if another day is not needed.
You don't need another day
Implying readiness to address the listener's needs promptly.
Lonely night (lonely tonight
Repeating the theme of a lonely night.
Sometimes I can tell you don't have to say
Observing the ability to sense the listener's emotions without words.
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny war
Reiteration of the ability to intuitively perceive emotional states.
When things aren't going right
Repeating the recognition that things are not going well.
It looks like just another lonely
Reiterating the feeling of just another lonely night.
Well are you alone tonight
Posing the question again about being alone tonight.
Or are you lonely tonight
Repeating the inquiry about experiencing loneliness tonight.
Say you're lonely tonight
Reiterating the request for confirmation of loneliness.
Well are you alone tonight
Once more questioning if the listener is currently without company.
Or are you lonely tonight
Once more asking if the listener is experiencing a sense of loneliness.
Say you're lonely tonight
Concluding with a repetition of the request for acknowledgment of loneliness.
