Sam Tsui – Just For Tonight lyrics
[Verse 1]
Facing another day
Gotta walk the line
Been dreaming of a getaway
Waiting for the sign
Spinning my wheels
Lately it feels like I'm treading water
Treading water
She said "Do you wanna come with me?"
On a Friday night
"We could be who we wanna be
Under neon lights"
There in the dark
Where we can start to show all our colors
All our colors

[Pre-Chorus 1]
"Get some shoes on,"
She said
"Let's head straight to the city"
Fire in her eyes (ooh)
Young and free
And we look so good that
Wouldn't it be a pity
Keeping this inside

[Chorus]
So just for tonight
Let's leave the labels behind
Remind ourselves we're alive
Just for tonight
We'll risk it all in a glance
And dance as long as we like
Just for tonight

[Post-Chorus]
Our song clicking on the radio
Take me somewhere we can let it go
Somewhere we'll be alright
Just for tonight, just for tonight
New emotion coming over me
No one saying who we gotta be
I know we'll be alright
Just for tonight just for tonight

[Verse 2]
Bright lights and blurry vision
The electric glow
Releasing our inhibition
Let the pressure go
Where we belong
We've got til dawn, don't you waste one minute
Waste one minute

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Dance with strangers and make
Mistakes that we don't know better
Fire in our eyes
Young and free, yeah we may
Not stay this way forever
But we've still got time

[Chorus]
So just for tonight
Let's leave the labels behind
Remind ourselves we're alive
Just for tonight
We'll risk it all in a glance
And dance as long as we like
Just for tonight

[Post-Chorus]
Our song clicking on the radio
Take me somewhere we can let it go
Somewhere we'll be alright
Just for tonight, just for tonight
New emotion coming over me
No one saying who we gotta be
I know we'll be alright
Just for tonight just for tonight

[Bridge]
Oh
Dancing in the glow
Til we got to go
She said, "You don't have to fight"

[Chorus]
So just for tonight
Let's leave the labels behind
Remind ourselves we're alive
Just for tonight
We'll dance as long as we like
Just for tonight
Let's leave the labels behind
Remind ourselves we're alive
Just for tonight
We'll risk it all in a glance
And dance as long as we like
Just for tonight

[Post-Chorus]
Our song playing on the radio
Take me somewhere we can let it go
Somewhere we'll be alright
Just for tonight, just for tonight
New emotion coming over me
No one saying who we gotta be
I know we'll be alright
Just for tonight just for tonight

Ooh
Just for tonight, just for tonight
