‘After All’ Lyrics: Carly Rae Jepsen Shows Off Baby Bump in Music Video for ‘Day & Night’ Song

Carly Rae Jepsen is back with a brand new track.

The 40-year-old “Run Away With Me” pop superstar just dropped her new song “After All,” along with an accompanying music video that finds her showing off her baby bump. (She since welcomed her first child with her husband, Cole M.G.N., in early March.)

The song, co-penned with longtime collaborators Kyle Shearer and Nate Cyphert, is described in an official release as a “glistening celebration of love, penned as she contemplated how motherhood impacts one’s identity, choices and perceptions.”

The accompanying music video was directed by Aerin Moreno and features Carly “reveling in the gently filtered daylight of a room as she surveys the reminders of the previous night’s joyous dinner party. As the piano amps up, images from celebrations across the decades flicker across the screen with the intensity of a fireworks display.”

“After All” is part of the “day” section of her upcoming 24-track Day and Night, described as a double album that “captures a blurred, dreamlike sense of time where nights stretch into mornings and days dissolve into nights, creating a feeling of being suspended inside a moment.”

The record, which also includes the lead single “On Wires,” is set to be released on September 18, and can be pre-ordered in various formats right now.

Read the lyrics to “After All”…

[Verse 1]
White walls, terracotta tiles, a view of the sea
You were makin’ us a table, love is a peach
Taste it, this is an oasis, I want to call it home right here, right now
Ruby, slip it on a necklace, sell me the dream

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to be the owner
I want to buy you flowers
Why don’t you take your shirt off for me now?
I want to take your photograph like that

[Chorus]
Lock the door, stop the world, start the inspiration
I’ll be yours in a moment to elevate
The after hours, every night, even after all
Lock the door, dim the lights, it’s a celebration
I am yours, you are mine, nothing complicated
After hours, every night, even after all

[Verse 2]
Baby, one bedroom apartment, daddy and me
Fireworks late into the evenin’, love is a breeze
Say it, this is an oasis, I want to call it home right here, right now
Diamond, slip it on my finger, this could be the dream

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to be the owner
I want to buy you flowers
Why don’t you take your shirt off for me now?
I want to take your photograph like that

[Chorus]
Lock the door, stop the world, start the inspiration
I’ll be yours in a moment to elevate
The after hours, every night, even after all
Lock the door, dim the lights, it’s a celebration
I am yours, you are mine, nothing complicated
After hours, every night, even after all

[Outro]
Lock the door, stop the world, start the inspiration
I’ll be yours in a moment to elevate
The after hours, every night, even after all
Well, I want to be the owner (Lock the door, dim the lights, it’s a celebration)
I want to give you flowers (I am yours, you are mine, nothing complicated)
I want to be the owner, I want to give you flowers (After hours, every night, even after all)
I want to be the owner (Lock the door, stop the world, start the inspiration)
I want to give you flowers (I’ll be yours in a moment to elevate)
I want to be the owner, I want to give you flowers (The after hours, every night, even after all)
