The Night Before
Echoes of Love Lost: Unraveling the Emotion in Joe Goldmark's 'The Night Before'
Lyrics
We said our goodbyes, ah, the night before.
We bid farewell the evening prior.
Love was in your eyes, ah, the night before.
Expressions of love were evident in your eyes on the preceding night.
Now today I find you have changed your mind.
Today, I discover that you have altered your decision.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Treat me with the same regard as you did on the night before.
Were you telling lies, ah, the night before?
Were the statements you made untrue on the night before?
Was I so unwise, ah, the night before?
Was I lacking in wisdom on the night before?
When I held you near you were so sincere.
When I held you close, your emotions seemed genuine.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Treat me as you did in the manner of the night before.
Last night is a night I will remember you by.
The previous night is a memorable one associated with you.
When I think of things we did it makes me want to cry.
Recalling the actions and moments from that night evokes a desire to weep.
We said our goodbye, ah, the night before.
We said our farewells once more on the night before.
Love was in your eyes, ah, the night before.
Love was evident in your eyes on the night before.
Now today I find you have changed your mind.
Today, it appears you have reconsidered your stance.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Requesting to be treated similarly to the night before.
When I held you near you were so sincere.
When in close proximity, your sincerity was palpable.
Treat me like you did the night before.
Seeking the same treatment as experienced on the night before.
Last night is a night I will remember you by.
The night before is etched in memory as a significant one with you.
When I think of things we did it makes me want to cry.
Recollections of our shared experiences evoke a sense of sorrow.
Were you telling lies, ah, the night before?
Were the assertions made on the night before unfounded?
Was I so unwise, ah, the night before?
Was I lacking in discernment on the night before?
When I held you near you were so sincere.
When in close proximity, your emotions seemed genuine.
Treat me like you did the night before,
Requesting to be treated akin to the night before.
like the night before.
Similar to the preceding night.
