Say It Again Tonight

Turn the speakers up, let the bassline roll Somebody's grinning in the corner tonight We all know the words before they arrive Same little phrase, every single time So we say it back, we say it loud Here we go, Dans, this one's for you

You came through the door with that same old line Didn't even wait to take your coat off Arms already open before we could speak Half a hug and half a wrestling match Nobody wins but everybody laughs Dans, you never learned to say hello quiet You say it like a chorus, loud and warm Two words in the doorway, one in your smile We used to roll our eyes and call it too much Now the room feels empty till you say it So go ahead and run it back once more We're all standing here waiting for the sound

Dans, come on, say it again tonight Two open arms and the whole room's alright Loud and a little bit ridiculous Dans, come on, say it again — that's us

Kitchen radio, plates still in the sink Somebody dancing with a dish towel high You do that spin you swear that you invented Then the same words land right on the beat Dans, you turn a Tuesday into a party No decorations, no reason and no plan Just a doorway, a laugh, a hand on a shoulder And everybody suddenly stays an hour more We don't need a story to explain you It's the third time tonight and it still lands So keep it, keep the line, keep the joke Some things get funnier the more they repeat

Say it slow, say it twice Say it wrong, say it nice Dans Tes Bras, that's the sound Passing all around Nobody's too cool tonight Everybody's in Arms up high, hold them there Let the chorus start again Count us in, one, two, three Dans, we're singing it with you

Dans, come on, say it again tonight Two open arms and the whole room's alright Loud and a little bit ridiculous Dans, come on, say it again — that's us

Same words, same doorway, same grin We'll keep them right here where they started Dans, you can say it every single day And we will never let you finish alone Turn the lights back up, the song is done But the line goes on, hands open wide Say it one more time, softly now And we will say it right back to you
