Description
Sleep seems necessary, but why, if the night itself plays catch-up? The lamp is on, the phone is warming up in my palm, my thoughts are spinning faster than the neighbour's lift. It seems simple: just call and it will get quieter. But no, it's more fun to keep the intrigue going a little longer, to hang on the edge between ‘just a little more’ and ‘okay, now for sure’.
The music here is like the light in the kitchen at three in the morning: warm, almost intimate, promising that it definitely won't be boring. Even if the morning creeps up with bags under your eyes, it was worth it.
Lyrics and translation
Original
I been seeing double, baby
I don't need no trouble, I'm in trouble
Way you move without me, I'm not budging
If you're all about me, all or nothing
Staying up to wait until
It's late enough to call you back
Call you, yeah
And you know it, baby, I keep a light on for ya
No, I'm not asleep, but you can knock on my door
Keep me up, keep me up, baby, all night long
I'm nocturnal
Baby, what's the game?
Why you always playing?
Wanna hypnotize, I know you do
Look me in my eyes, I notice you
Staying up to wait until
It's late, it's late enough to call you back
I'm gonna call you, yeah
I'm nocturnal
And you know it, baby, I keep a light on for ya
No, I'm not asleep, but you can knock on my door
Keep me up, keep me up, baby, all night long
Keep me up, keep me up
I'm nocturnal
And you know it, baby, I keep a light on for ya
No, I'm not asleep, but you can knock on my door
Keep me up, keep me up, baby, all night long
Baby, all night long
I'm nocturnal
