This Could Be the Night Lyrics

This could be the night.
This could be everything we ever wanted.
It could be the night.

I have an angel, let me tell you about an angel.
Well, I have an angel who comes to me and makes sure I'm all right.
I have angel, an angel with brown eyes.

This could be the time, well, this could be the time.
This could be our time, this could be for us.
This could be the night.

When I was little, I used to dream.
And now that, you know, I'm older... well, I still dream.
And guess what? All my dreams are coming true.
My time is now, my time is here, and this could be it.
I-T, it. Word.

This could be everything I ever hoped for.
You know, I mean, like, who could hope for anything more than an angel?
I mean, you know, like, what's better than an angel?
A princess? Uh-uh. Um, like, you know. A cheerleader? No.
That's not even, you know, not even half as good as an angel.
And that's what I have, I got an angel.

I've got an angel who comes to me and makes sure I'm all right.
I have a sweet angel with brown eyes.

Well, this could, this could be our time.
If I'm not mistaken, this could be the night.
N-I-G-H-T.

You know what?
I'll tell you what, and I don't think I'm mistaken one little bit,
When I tell you that everything is R-I-G-H-T and that spells right.

I have an angel who comes to me, and she's mine.
And that's the best part. You wanna know the best part?
Well, she's mine, all mine, all mine.

I've got an angel who comes to me and makes sure I'm all right.
I have a sweet angel with brown eyes.

This could be, this could very well be,
In fact, I'm sure it is, this is the night.

Do you think I'm happy? Well, what do you think?
Do you think, like, I'm happy? Well, you'd beright.
And why am I happy? Well, I am happy because,
Well, because this is the night.
The night.

This could be our night.

Half Japanese is a punk rock band formed by brothers Jad Fair and David Fair in their Uniontown, Maryland bedroom around 1975.

Their quirky song lyrics often deal with monsters and the supernatural (especially as influenced by campy "creature feature" and scifi movies), in addition to more conventional themes, such as the visceral thrills of crushes and infatuations. They have stated that all their songs are either "love songs or monster songs."

Fans of Half Japanese include Penn Jillette, who helped the band release some of their albums on his ad hoc 50 Skidillion Watts label, and the late Kurt Cobain, who had them open for Nirvana's 1993 tour. Over time David Fair became less involved, ultimately quitting the band in favor of married life, and Jad brought in more outside musicians who have contributed to an increasingly coherent and organized sound.

They have worked with the Orthotonics, Moe Tucker, Teenage Fanclub, Daniel Johnston and John Zorn, among others.

The band's history and influence was chronicled in the 1993 fan documentary Half Japanese: The Band That Would Be King by Jeff Feuerzeig.
