[Intro] [Muted electric guitar, warm analog synths, distant ocean waves, whispered male ad-libs] Yeah, yeah California, after dark Come on, baby Let’s get lost [Verse 1] Midnight running down the boulevard Your red lips glowing in the dashboard stars Barefoot dancing at a roadside bar You look like trouble, and I love who you are Blacktop heat and your hand in mine Radio loud with the windows wide You say, “Where we going?” I say, “Anywhere” There’s a little bit of magic in the salt air [Pre-Chorus] Leave your worries at the door tonight Let the moon paint silver on your eyes We don’t need a reason, don’t need a plan Just take my hand, take my hand [Chorus] Let’s get undressed, baby, lose the lights Let the whole world disappear tonight No more talking, no more playing pretend Let the summer night begin again Let’s get undressed, let the cool breeze in Feel that ocean air against your skin We got nowhere to be, nothing to prove Just me, just you, with nothing left to lose [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh, under California skies Oh-oh-oh, let the night come alive Let’s get, let’s get Let’s get undressed [Verse 2] Neon flickers on a motel sign Your silhouette moving close to mine You steal my shirt, say it looks better on you I steal a kiss, now we’re breaking the rules The tide rolls in like a slow heartbeat Your bare feet tracing circles in the street Tomorrow can wait till the sun comes through Tonight’s got a different kind of point of view [Pre-Chorus] Leave your worries at the door tonight Let the moon paint silver on your eyes No destination, no master plan Just take my hand, take my hand [Chorus] Let’s get undressed, baby, lose the lights Let the whole world disappear tonight No more talking, no more playing pretend Let the summer night begin again Let’s get undressed, let the cool breeze in Feel that ocean air against your skin We got nowhere to be, nothing to prove Just me, just you, with nothing left to lose [Instrumental Break] [Four-on-the-floor drums, funky bass, shimmering synth hook, crunchy electric guitar riff, wordless vocal chops] [Bridge] Maybe it’s the moonlight Maybe it’s the wine Maybe it’s the way you look at me Like the whole damn coast is mine No promises till morning No pretending we’re immune Just your heartbeat next to mine And a sky full of Malibu blue [Breakdown] [Beat drops out, intimate close-miked vocal, soft guitar and subtle ocean ambience] Come a little closer Let the night unfold You don’t need to tell me What we both already know [Final Chorus] [Full drums, soaring layered harmonies, driving guitars, euphoric synths] Let’s get undressed, baby, lose the lights Let the whole world disappear tonight No more talking, no more playing pretend Let the summer night begin again Let’s get undressed, let the cool breeze in Feel that ocean air against your skin We got nowhere to be, nothing to prove Just me, just you, with nothing left to lose [Final Post-Chorus] Oh-oh-oh, under California skies Oh-oh-oh, till the morning light Let’s get, let’s get Let’s get undressed [Outro] [Beat fades into warm synths, clean guitar echoes, and distant waves] California, after dark Just you and me And the ocean breeze Let’s get undressed
