Schenk' Mir Nur Diese Nacht
Andy Borg Lyrics

The lyrics of Andy Borg's song "Schenk mir nur diese Nacht" express the singer's desire to spend a night with someone special, someone he has known for a long time and with whom he has much to say. The opening lines suggest that the singer values the opportunity to communicate more deeply with the other person, as they seem to hold the answers to his many questions. The chorus, repeated three times throughout the song, pleads with the other to "schenk mir nur diese Nacht" or "just give me this night," implying a sense of urgency or the possibility of it being a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The repetition of this line emphasizes the singer's desire to be with this person, suggesting that he believes that a single night together can change everything, possibly leading to a lifelong romance.

The second half of the chorus paints a picture of hope, suggesting that the path of love might lead to eternity. The final verse deepens the singer's sentiment, asking the listener whether they are familiar with the longing dreams that visit them when they are lonely, or the flames of passion that prevent them from sleeping at night. The song's closing lines return to the chorus's central request, urging the other person to stay and spend a single moment together.
