Lyrics for By Tonight as interpreted by AllStarMe

By Tonight Lyrics
you're looking quite sharp, sugar
you've got some teeth on that stare
you've got them tattered blue jeans on
you've done that thing with your hair
this bed could use a secret
and these pounding hearts could keep it
if you could i could
i swear

cause you turned me on
and i'd like to know if you were trying
and angel we are so gone

by tonight
the earth bursts open
we shed this clothing
you'll see my from the
angle that you missed
nothing exists but this

you're looking high strung sugar
why don't you sink a little bit
into the sea of sweat
our skin can spit
it was good to keep me guessing
cause you know i hate attention
but can we get down to it

He is being lead on and he can't take it anymore. Simple.

I think it's just about a girl he likes and he's basically asking her to have sex with him.

I don't know if the girl is a cocktease. Could be. But I feel like its a guy that really likes this chick and now he wants to cattlepod the oyster ditch with the lap rocket.

maybe i'm a big softie, but i think this song is so much more beautiful than what you guys have been interpreting it as. i see it as a couple in love having sex for the first time, and it's all parts lust and love and amazement and all of that.

Close to miki, it's two people that have overlooked each other but finally realize they're in love. They end up having sex for the first time.

are you kidding? every word oozes condescension. who calls another "sugar" sincerely that's not some waitress at wafflehouse in southern america? esp when he says that the skin "spits"; that's not the most delicate way he could describe sweating. If anything, it's depraved and slimy. I love how current popular songs deprave and demean women. This theme runs rampant these days.

The guy and girl deny their love for each other but ultimately realize their mutual attraction.

i don't know..
I think this is a guy who's seen this girl a few times and suddenly feels a lot more attracted to her. He wants to sleep with her, but he's not sure just how much she likes him.
this song is him trying to get her into bed. it shows part of his honest, romantic attraction to her as a person and part of his longing just for the sex.

well, that's what I think anyway.

Mostly due to the line "you'll see me from the angle that you missed" I assumed it was about an ex. They're hanging out for the first time since their breakup and he's just thinking that she looks good and wants to have some great make up sex later.

I definetely agree with chickenoodle, it's got to be about an ex.

shes turning him on and he just wants the have sex... but shes beating around the bush and making him want her even more. so hes promining himself that "by tonight" its going to happen.

i think the "you'll see me from the angle that you've missed" line is trying to say like the 2 of them have maybe been friends for awhile & are finally starting to see they both have an attraction. so he decides to make a move, although she may be a little wary about it

We all should know by now Max puts things in a very odd way. I don't think it's meant to be rude, not at all.
