Why Don't We – Lotus Inn lyrics

Why Don't We – Lotus Inn lyrics

[Intro: Jonah Marais]
Yeah

[Verse 1: Jack Avery]
I saw you movin' on the dance floor
I caught you lookin' over at me and my friends
Got my attention, now I want more
I think we both know how this night's gonna end
The way that you move your hips to the rhythm of the beat
You got me so nervous, think I need another drink
But then you grabbed my hand, said, "Baby, come with me"
This wasn't a part of the plan, no

[Pre-Chorus: Zach Herron]
But you look, you look so perfect dancing next to me
I wish the sun would look the other way

[Chorus: Jonah Marais]
'Cause I never want this night to end
Baby, we could turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we can press rewind
We're staying at the Lotus Inn
Baby, we could turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we can press rewind
I never want this night to end

[Verse 2: Daniel Seavey]
Played you this song up on the stereo (What? Yeah)
You played it over and over again
Before it even hit the radio, oh-woah-oh
Now they spin it over and over again
We've had a few good nights and a couple of bad ones
A few bad fights but I'm glad that they happened
And at the end of the night, I can honestly say
I'd do it over and over and over again, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Corbyn Besson]
But you look, you look so perfect dancing next to me
I wish the sun would look the other way

[Chorus: Jonah Marais]
'Cause I never want this night to end
Baby, we could turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we can press rewind
We're staying at the Lotus Inn
Baby, we could turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we can press rewind
I never want this night to end

[Post-Chorus: Jack Avery & Daniel Seavey]
Ayy-yeah, ayy-yeah-yeah
Ayy-yeah, ayy-yeah-yeah
Ayy-yeah, ayy-yeah-yeah
Oh yeah-yeah, ee-yeah yeah, yeah yeah

[Chorus: Jonah Marais & Daniel Seavey]
Baby, we can turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we could press rewind
We're staying at the Lotus Inn
Baby, we could turn back time
Do it all over again
Tomorrow we can press rewind (Oh yeah yeah, ee-yeah yeah)
I never want this night to end (Yeah yeah, to end)

[Outro: Jonah Marais]
Baby, we can turn back time

Verse 1
The Why Don’t We boys are enjoying a good drink and a dance at the infamous Lotus Inn. They catch a glimpse of a girl looking at them from across the dance floor. The boys realize it was no mistake as her intentions are clear in her eyes; “I think we both know how this night’s gonna end.” This was not part of the plan for neither of the boys for the night. But this is a welcomed detour!

Pre-chorus
The boy is tranced by her looks and the way her body moves on the dance floor. Why Don’t We wishes the Sun would look away (go down) so they can hide away into the darkness of the night.

Chorus
The night turns into pure ecstasy and the boys want to re-live it all over again. The Lotus Inn is made for travelers who are “looking to find yourself or looking for a good time” and promises to “make your stay with us a night to remember.”

Verse 2
In the second verse of the song, Why Don’t We sing about playing this song over and over again even before it released. While this could allude to the ongoing storyline of the song, where the girl might have loved this song, it has a different backstory too. Christian Seavey, Daniel Seavey’s brother, talked about the song and it’s connection to their late friend Corey La Barrie, who passed away in May 2020; “[this song] is so close to my heart, because Corey and I, every time we drove home from anywhere, he would always be like, “Christian, play ‘Lotus Inn,’ man!” … And he would scream that shit in the back. Corey kinda wanted to be a singer, and he used to talk to Daniel about it all the time, it was the cutest thing. But he would belt “Lotus Inn” and I loved it.” The lyrics of the second verse also shout out to their album titles, but it fits perfectly to the context of the song as well.
Despite the few bad days, at the Lotus Inn or even in life in general, we always push through thinking about the many good days.
