Written by Jimmy McHugh and Harold Adamson for Higher and Higher (1943), a film in which Frank Sinatra sang it.
The words
After a quarrel with his sweetheart, a man lies awake all night until he can set things right.
The singer has had a falling-out with someone he loves and spent a sleepless night worrying, wanting only to make up. It is a tender, slightly anxious song, more sweet than sad, and it resolves with the hope of reconciliation. Dylan sings it softly and earnestly, the band giving it a gentle sway that suits a song about a restless night.
