Anyone who listens to Morgan Wallen's "Last Night" will clearly understand that the song was written about a relationship between two people who argue a lot, but are deeply in love. The song plays out a storyline of a couple that drank too much and opened up in an honest way about their romance, with lyrics such as "Last night we let the liquor talk / I can't remember everything we said but we said it all / You told me that you wish I was somebody you never met." The story behind the song hints that the couple can't seem to stay away from one another despite how volatile their relationship may be.
It's unclear whether the couple in the song officially break up or get back together after their alcohol-fueled spat. However, from Wallen's point of view, the relationship doesn't feel done. "I know you said this time you really weren't coming back again / But baby, baby, somethin's tellin' me this ain't over yet," the lyrics read.
"Last Night" was written by Ashley Gorley, Ryan Vojtseak, Jacob Kasher Hundlin, and John Byron. When asked why he chose the song as one of his first singles off the album along with "Every Thing I Love" and "I Wrote The Book," Wallen told American Songwriter that the songs feel "really diverse" and really introduced the album in a perfect way.
