Adela, the Night Is Yours

Lyrics

[Intro] Adela, step into the room Everybody’s making space for you [Verse 1] All the men line up by the dance floor Trying to catch your eye like never before You turn once, and the whole place sways They’re following your footsteps through the haze [Pre-Chorus] They watch you laugh, they watch you spin Every little move pulls them in But you hold the key, you choose the way Nobody gets to claim your day [Chorus] Adela, all the men fall in line Dancing for a chance, but your heart is mine They can follow you beneath the trees But you decide who gets your company Adela, let them sing and shout You’re the one who knows what this is about If they want to chase you through the wood They better ask you first, like they should [Verse 2] One brings flowers, one brings a tambourine One tells a story he rehearsed in his dreams You laugh so hard that the lanterns shake Then you disappear beside the garden gate [Pre-Chorus] They watch you laugh, they watch you spin Every little move pulls them in But you hold the key, you choose the way Nobody gets to claim your day [Chorus] Adela, all the men fall in line Dancing for a chance, but your heart is mine They can follow you beneath the trees But you decide who gets your company Adela, let them sing and shout You’re the one who knows what this is about If they want to chase you through the wood They better ask you first, like they should [Bridge] Through the pines, through the fern and moss They keep pace, but they know the cost No secret plans, no taking control Respect is the rhythm that gets to your soul [Final Chorus] Adela, all the men fall in line Dancing for a chance, but your heart is mine They can follow you beneath the trees But you decide who gets your company Adela, let them sing and shout You’re the one who knows what this is about If they want to chase you through the wood They better ask you first, like they should [Outro] Adela, the night is yours Close the gate, or open the doors
