And even when there’s no more alcohol
I still think about you, baby
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Now it’s almost morning
I don’t want this to be over
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
My mind made up
Fallin’ is courageous
Pretty please, pray for us
Once you change up, I see you’re a traitor
Now I think you’re dangerous
Nobody said you had to live a boring life
No typical shit, we switching up the vibes
Nobody said you had to live a boring life
I’m feeling you, I wish I could extend my night
And even when there’s no more alcohol
I still think about you, baby
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Now it’s almost morning
I don’t want this to be over
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
(Ay, Ay) Last call for alcohol
Screaming “fuck the law”
Last time I got a taste, it wasn’t enough at all
Body language say it all
Stop tryna play it off
She got a bad attitude, I’m bout to break her off
She too eager to hop in to my two seater
When I asked her ’bout her man, she caught amnesia
Damn, I can’t believe I’m sober in Ibiza
Damn, I’m drippin’ and she like the way I clean up
(Hey) She like I need, I need, I need, I need ya
(Ay) She like I need, I need, I need, I need ya
And even when there’s no more alcohol
I still think about you, baby
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Now it’s almost morning
I don’t want this to be over
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Go ahead now, do what you do
Well I guess I got nothing to lose
I just want to stay here with you
And even when there’s no more alcohol
I still think about you, baby
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Now it’s almost morning
I don’t want this to be over
‘Cause I never thought we’d be in love
Even when we’re sober
Finding Love Beyond the Party
In “Sober,” Afrojack explores the surprising depth of emotions that can arise even when the party ends and the alcohol runs dry. The lyrics reflect an unexpected romance that transcends fleeting nightlife connections, highlighting a love that remains strong even after the music fades. The song captures the thrill of vulnerability—falling for someone when least expected and realizing those feelings are genuine, not just a product of the club’s energy.
Moments of Honesty and Yearning
Afrojack’s narrative goes beyond surface-level attraction, delving into the desire to extend meaningful moments and the fear of love slipping away. Lines about courage and the unpredictability of relationships reveal an inner conflict, while the repeated refrain underlines a longing to hold onto authentic connection.
