This Night Lyrics

This Night Lyrics

Janis Ian

Here I am dressed for the ball

Does he still like me?

Will he call?

Tonight’s the night

Will he remember my name

I’ve written his all over the sky

Tonight’s the night

I’m gonna make him mine.

And the lights

Will go swirling

‘round and ‘round

And the bells will ring on high

And I’ll laugh until

I cry the night away

This night

Will be mine forever now

‘Cause forever is his name

And the lights will keep swirling

And burning up the day

Tonight’s the night

Here I am dancing at last

Holding my own

Even when the band plays fast

Tonight’s the night

What if the band plays too slow?

Will he forget me

And leave me stranded?

How do you know

Just how far to go

And the lights

Will go swirling

‘round and ‘round

And the bells will ring on high

And I’ll laugh until

I cry the night away

This night

Will be mine forever now

‘Cause forever is his name

And the lights will keep swirling

And burning up the day

Tonight’s the night

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)

Here I am ready for bed

Do I like pretty or

just well fed?

Tonight’s the night

What if I look like a fool?

Maybe I just better wait and see

What he’s gonna do

Maybe he’s scared too.

And the lights

Will go swirling

‘round and ‘round

And the bells they ring on high

And I’ll laugh until

I cry the night away

This night

Will be mine forever now

‘Cause forever is his name

And the lights keep on swirling

And burning up the day

Tonight’s the night

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)

(I think he loves me

Yes I think he loves me

I think he loves me.)
