Night Song Lyrics

Late nights in Lake Park
I wait for you to see me
My eyes open, standing watch for hours
Wearing your favorite thing

I awoke pleasing you so slowly
I'm giving you time
The soft light
On your man brow
I'm asking you to show me how

Show me now
Show me a second face
Show me how you make
Your second face

Fingers situate themselves in dark,
Moving the way that is so easy
And in summer bright your shout
On the surface, warm

I throw a box full of oranges,
Syrup seeping out
Searching for a season smell
I run from you then walk back to you
Who I don't know
Sniffing for a light

Show me now
Show me a second face
Show me how you make
Your second face

What did I do to make you feel so bad?
What did I do that you would make me feel so bad?

What is the Meaning of Night Song?

Oh, the melodramatic musings of nighttime rendezvous and citrusy despair! 🍊 In "Night Song," Julia Holter takes us on a moonlit stroll through emotions as complex as a Rubik's Cube at midnight. Here, our protagonist waits in eager anticipation, sporting their beloved's favorite threads, only to dive into a sea of self-doubt and existential queries. Is there a hidden side to her paramour? The repeated pleas to "show me your second face" suggest a yearning for deeper connection or perhaps an understanding of a more mysterious, perhaps darker aspect of their personality. And amidst all this emotional spelunking, why not toss in a box of oranges for good measure—because nothing says 'existential crisis' like sticky syrup and the scent of citrus seeking out seasons past. It’s love with a twist of lemon—or orange! 🍋
