The lyrics for “Silver Night” reflect a specific feeling I had, waiting for the chance to get back at someone I was really angry with. The expression “silver night” is my own concoction, meaning “golden opportunity” or something like that.
I quite like these lyrics since I think they have a good flow and also work pretty well with the mood of the song.
Waiting for a silver night
when I’ll have the absolute right
to tell you how I feel
It shouldn’t be too long, it couldn’t be so longWalking down this street again
I hope to see you here and then
I’ll choose my words and shout
It shouldn’t be too long, it couldn’t be so longI’m no closer
to forgiving
And I promise
I will take you downSettling down, not losing sight
because it’s not just out of spite
I want to freak you out
It shouldn’t be so long, it couldn’t be too longStaying cool while breathing hard
I hold the one and only card
and I will play it soon
It shouldn’t be so long, it couldn’t be too longI’ve been waiting
so impatient
for a moment
when I’ll take you down
