Lyrics
Every night about this time
Expressing a recurring occurrence, possibly a specific time of day.
She's waiting for a man
A woman is anticipating the arrival of a man.
It could be me or it could be you
Indicating uncertainty about the man who will be with her.
Who'll touch her with their hands
Emphasizing the importance of physical touch in their relationship.
Someone left her long ago
Referring to a past abandonment that still affects her.
She never found out why
Highlighting her lack of understanding regarding the abandonment.
So she falls in love again
Describing her pattern of falling in love again as a response to the past.
Every night about this time
Reiterating the theme of anticipation at a specific time.
Every night about this time
Repeating the idea of a nightly routine.
She'll be holding someone tight
She will be emotionally close to someone during these nights.
Faces don't mean much
Suggesting that appearances are not crucial when the lights are off.
When she turns out the lights
Emphasizing the importance of emotional connection over physical looks.
Just tell her that you love her
Encouraging expressing love even if she's aware of potential deception.
Even though she knows you're lying
Addressing the contradiction of being dishonest about love.
Then she'll lead you to her room
Leading to a more intimate space, potentially her room.
Every night about this time
Reiterating the regularity of this nighttime occurrence.
Every night about this time
Continuing the theme of anticipation at a specific time.
She could be yours

She could be mine
Emphasizing the shared potential of different individuals being with her.
Just hold her when she cries
Encouraging emotional support during vulnerable moments.

She'll pretend the best she can
Describing her effort to cope with emotions through pretense.
It could be me or it could be you
Reiterating uncertainty about the man who will remind her of a man.
Who'll remind her of a man
Highlighting the role of the man in triggering memories.
Don't say nothing when you leave
Advising against prolonged goodbyes, possibly to minimize emotional impact.
No need for long good-byes
Emphasizing the insignificance of the departing individual in her life.
You're not the one she's missing
Clarifying that the departing person is not the one missed during these nights.
