They Only Came Out at Night
Nocturnal Reflections: Salon Noir's Enigmatic Tale of Nighttime Encounters
Lyrics
They only came out at night
They only emerged during nighttime.
they only came out at night
Reiteration of their nocturnal habits.
did they think it was worth it
Questioning the perceived value or justification of their actions.
“do you mind if i close my eyes”
Quoting a request to close eyes, possibly indicating fatigue or avoidance.
she said and slept in
A woman's response, indicating she agreed to rest or sleep.
some has changed
Observing a change in the way someone looks at another person.
in the way she looks at her
Continuation of the change in perception, particularly focusing on appearance.
but they sat there on the curb(s), that night again
Describing a shared moment on the curbside, possibly a recurring scene.
keep your fire away
Advising to keep one's emotional intensity at a distance.
and come see me
Invitation to visit or spend time together.
but you have your head is held high
Recognition of maintaining a confident or proud demeanor.
as you walk by me
Noticing the person walking by with confidence.
4 weeks, at least
Indication of a significant time gap since their last meeting.
since they saw each other at last
Reflecting on the duration of separation between the individuals.
again they talked about the past
Recollection of conversations about the past during their reunion.
keep your fire away
Reiteration of the advice to maintain emotional distance.
and come see me
Renewed invitation to come closer and spend time together.
but your head is held high
Acknowledging the confident posture of the person passing by.
as you walk by me
Observation of the person walking with a proud demeanor.
