Between You and Me
Neon Nights and Barstool Romance: Between You and Me
Lyrics
Between you and me, we're about six beers deep
The speaker and the person they're addressing have consumed about six beers.
And we know all but one of the songs on the jukebox
They are familiar with all but one of the songs available on the jukebox.
And we got one college degree
Together, they possess one college degree.
Between you and me
The shared experiences and connection between the speaker and the other person.
We've got four holes in our jeans
Both have four holes in their jeans, suggesting a casual, worn appearance.
One pair of boots and two old barstools
They each own one pair of boots and two old barstools with excess space between them.
With too much space in-between
Highlighting the physical distance or emotional gap between the speaker and the other person.
Girl, we don't have to move too fast
Expressing a desire not to rush things in the relationship.
But we can do something about that
Suggesting the possibility of taking action to strengthen their connection.
We've got some neon, a bar we can lean on
List of elements contributing to the atmosphere, including neon lights and a bar to lean on.
We've got an all-night high we can be on
Reference to an enjoyable, prolonged state of euphoria.
We've got a dance floor, the band playing one more
Availability of a dance floor with a band playing, creating a lively environment.
Girl, I think there's a pretty good chance for
Expressing optimism about the possibility of a romantic connection.
Keeping it rolling, baby you know it
Encouraging the continuation of a positive and enjoyable relationship.
We've got something going between you and me
Emphasizing the evolving connection between the speaker and the other person.
Between you and me
Reiteration of the shared experiences and connection between the two.
I was just about ready to leave
The speaker was considering leaving but changed their mind upon seeing the other person.
Then I saw you as soon as you walked in
Expressing immediate interest upon the arrival of the other person.
And wanted to buy you a drink
Desire to buy the other person a drink as a gesture of goodwill.
Between you and me
Reiteration of the shared experiences and connection between the two.
I wasn't looking for nothin' tonight
The speaker wasn't initially seeking anything, but circumstances changed.
Aw but baby it wouldn't be right if I didn't try
Expressing the importance of making an effort to connect with the other person.
Before they turned on the lights
Acting before the opportunity is lost, possibly before the end of the night.
We've got some neon, a bar we can lean on
Reiteration of the elements contributing to the positive atmosphere.
We've got an all-night high we can be on
Reiteration of the enjoyable and euphoric state they can experience together.
We've got a dance floor, the band playing one more
Reiteration of the lively environment with dancing and live music.
Girl, I think there's a pretty good chance for
Expressing optimism about the potential for a romantic connection.
Keeping it rolling, baby you know it
Encouraging the continuation of a positive and enjoyable relationship.
We've got something going between you and me
Emphasizing the evolving connection between the speaker and the other person.
We've got some neon, a bar we can lean on
Reiteration of the elements contributing to the positive atmosphere.
We've got an all-night high we can be on
Reiteration of the enjoyable and euphoric state they can experience together.
We've got a dance floor, the band playing one more
Reiteration of the lively environment with dancing and live music.
Girl, I think there's a pretty good chance for
Expressing optimism about the potential for a romantic connection.
Keeping it rolling, baby you know it
Encouraging the continuation of a positive and enjoyable relationship.
We've got something going between you and me
Emphasizing the evolving connection between the speaker and the other person.
Between you and me
Reiteration of the shared experiences and connection between the two.
