We Owned The Night Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me, have you ever wanted
Someone so much it hurts?

Your lips keep trying to speak
But you just can't find the words
Well, I had this dream once
I held it in my head

[Verse 2]
She was the purest beauty
But not the common kind
She had a way about her
That made you feel alive
And for a moment
We made the world stand still


[Chorus]
Yeah, we owned the night

[Verse 3]
You had me dim the lights
You danced just like a child
The wine spilled on your dress
And all you did was smile
Yeah, it was perfect
And I hold it in my mind
[Chorus]
Yeah, we owned the night
Oh, yeah

[Bridge]
When the summer rolls around
And the sun starts sinking down
I still remember you
Oh, I remember you
And I wonder where you are
Are you looking at those same stars again?
Do you remember when?

[Verse 4]
We woke under a blanket
All tangled up in skin
Not knowing in that moment
We'd never speak again

But it was perfect
I never will forget
When we owned the night

[Chorus]
Yeah, we owned the night
Yeah
[Outro]
Oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah-oh
Oh-woah-oh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
