After the Lights Go Down Low
Love's Embrace in the Shadows: After the Lights Go Down Low
Lyrics
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
Anticipation of a romantic moment after a social event.
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so.
Expectation that teasing will no longer be necessary.
And when the dancin' is thru and folks will be few
After the dance ends, and people leave.
I'll be here sittin' with no one but you
Expressing a commitment to be with the person.
And I'll be needin you so after the lights go down low.
Expressing a strong need for the person after the event.
I wanna hold you, squeeze you as tight as I can,
Desire to physically hold and squeeze the person.
I'd like to kiss you, please you and make you understand
Expressing a desire to kiss and please the person.
And when you thrill me, you fill me with love so divine.
Describing the emotional impact of the person's actions.
Together we can have a good time.
Anticipation of a good time together.
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
Repetition of the anticipation of a romantic moment.
There'll be no're as on for teasin' me so.
Reiteration of no reason for teasing after the lights go down.
And we can cuddle up near without any fear
Desire to cuddle without fear.
'Cause I've got some sweet talk that you want to hear
Having sweet talk to share with the person.
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low.
Expressing continued need after the lights go down.
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
Repetition of the anticipation of a romantic moment.
There'll be no're as on for teasin' me so.
Reiteration of no reason for teasing after the lights go down.
And when the dancin' is through and folks will be few
Repetition of the situation after the dance.
I'll be here sittin' with no one but you
Commitment to be with the person in a quiet moment.
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low.
Expressing continued need after the lights go down.
I wanna hold you, squeeze you as tight as I can,
Desire to physically hold and squeeze the person.
I'd like to kiss you, please you and make you understand
Expressing a desire to kiss and please the person.
And when you thrill me, you fill me with love so divine.
Describing the emotional impact of the person's actions.
Together we can have a good time.
Anticipation of having a good time together.
After the lights go down low, baby, you know
Repetition of the anticipation of a romantic moment.
There'll be no reason for teasin' me so.
Reiteration of no reason for teasing after the lights go down.
And we can cuddle up near without any fear
Desire to cuddle without fear.
'Cause I've got some sweet talk that you want to hear
Having sweet talk to share with the person.
And I'll be needin' you so after the lights go down low.
Expressing continued need after the lights go down.
