Story Behind The Song

Little movies that play in my head

Song Description

Walkin around, kickin' the curb, tryin' to get up the nerve to go tell a girl he fancies her, but ends up just hung over and missing several hours.

Lyrics

Another Night Lost
Words and music by Nick McDermott (all instruments)



The rain slaps the street under a neon light
And I walk through the puddles
And I splash through the gutters all night
It?s a long road back to feelin? the slightest bit of right
And if the high heeled, red dress ladies on the corner
Turn an eye well honey I just might

And darlin? only you
Can save me
Honey only you

chorus: I won?t ask you to
I won?t ask you please
I can?t tell you which way to believe
Well its? nine o?clock and I?m on my way
I?m gonna stand at your door and say
Darlin? it?s a strange way I feel about you
Honey it?s a strange way I feel about you

There?s a sun comin? up and the long hot day is near
And there?s a memory of an intention I wanted to share
But I can?t remember the things I?ve done, and I fear
There?s a stand on the corner sellin? headlines that read
?Another Night Lost!?

(instr. Break)

And honey only you
Can save me
Darlin? only you

(repeat chorus)
