The group was formed in 1994 as Kara's Flowers while its members were still in high school and originally consisted of Adam Levine (lead vocals, guitar), Jesse Carmichael (guitar, backing vocals) Mickey Madden (bass guitar) and Ryan Dusick (drums). Kara's Flowers signed to Reprise Records and released an album, "The Fourth World", in 1997. After a tepid response to the album, the band parted ways with the record label and the members attended college. Dusick and Madden stayed local at UCLA, while Levine and Carmichael relocated to the east coast to attend Five Towns College. While Levine and Carmichael were in New York, they began to take notice of the urban music surrounding them and later let the style influence the songs they wrote.

In 2001, the band regrouped, with guitarist James Valentine added to the line-up, and pursued a new direction under the name: Maroon 5. At this point, Jesse Carmichael switched to playing the keyboards and this has become his main instrument in the band (although he also plays rhythm guitar to this day). After these changes, Maroon 5 signed with Octone Records and released their debut album, "Songs About Jane", in June 2002. The album's lead single "Harder to Breathe", received heavy airplay, which helped the album to debut at number six on the Billboard 200 chart. The band won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 2005. For the next few years, the band toured extensively worldwide in support of Songs About Jane and produced two live recordings: 2004's "1.22.03.Acoustic" and 2005's "Live Friday the 13th". In 2006, Ryan Dusick officially left the band after suffering from serious wrist and shoulder injuries and was replaced by Matt Flynn. The band recorded their second album, "It Won't Be Soon Before Long" and released it in May 2007. The album reached number one on the US Billboard 200 chart and the lead single, "Makes Me Wonder", became the band's first number-one song on the Billboard Hot 100.

On September 21, 2010, the band released their third studio album entitled "Hands All Over". It was re-released in 2011 to include the single "Moves like Jagger" (featuring Christina Aguilera). While the original version of the album received mixed reviews, "Moves like Jagger" reached the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The band released their next album, "Overexposed", on June 26, 2012. All four singles of the album were really successful on the charts - for example, the second single from Overexposed, "One More Night" (released on June 19, 2012), reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2014, the band signed with Interscope Records and released their fifth studio album, "V", with the very-first line-up of six official band members, as keyboardist and backing vocalist PJ Morton became an official member in 2012. The album debuted at top of the weekly Billboard 200 chart. Since its debut in 2002, the band has sold more than 15 million albums in the United States and over 100 million singles and 27 million albums worldwide.

Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh

You and I go hard at each other
Like we're going to war
You and I go rough, we keep throwing things
And slamming the door

You and I get so damn dysfunctional
We start keeping score
You and I get sick, yeah
I know that we can't do this no more, yeah

But baby, there you go again
There you go again making me love you
Yeah, I stopped using my head
Using my head, let it all go

I got you stuck on my body
On my body like a tattoo
And now I'm feeling stupid
Feeling stupid, crawling back to you

So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I will only stay with you one more night
And I know I said it a million times
But I'll only stay with you one more night

Try to tell you no
But my body keeps on telling you yes
Try to tell you to stop
But your lipstick got me so out of breath

I'd be waking up in the morning
Probably hating myself
And I'd be waking up
Feeling satisfied but guilty as hell, yeah

But baby, there you go again
There you go again, making me love you (making me love you)
Yeah, I stopped using my head
Using my head, let it all go (let it all go)

I got you stuck on my body
On my body like a tattoo (like a tattoo, yeah)
And now I'm feeling stupid
Feeling stupid, crawling back to you

So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I will only stay with you one more night (oh)
And I know I said it a million times (yeah)
But I'll only stay with you one more night

(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Yeah baby, give me one more night
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Yeah baby, give me one more night
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Yeah baby, give me one more night
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh)

But baby, there you go again
There you go again making me love you
Yeah, I stopped using my head
Using my head, let it all go

Got you stuck on my body
On my body like a tattoo
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So I cross my heart and I hope to die (oh, oh)
That I will only stay with you one more night (oh, oh)
And I know I said it a million times (a million times)
But I'll only stay with you for one more night

So I cross my heart and I hope to die
That I’ll only stay with you one more night (yeah, yeah)
And I know I said it a million times (yeah, yeah)
But I’ll only stay with you one more night

I don't know, whatever

Overall Meaning

Maroon 5's song "One More Night" is about a dysfunctional and toxic relationship that the singer is trapped in. The lyrics suggest that the couple constantly argue and fight, but despite their better judgment, they keep coming back to each other. The singer acknowledges that they cannot keep doing this and tries to convince themselves that they will only stay with their partner for one more night. However, the cycle of breaking up and coming back together only perpetuates.

The lyrics convey a sense of frustration and desperation as the singer is aware that the relationship is not healthy, but they cannot help being drawn to their partner. The line "I'd be waking up in the morning, probably hating myself" suggests that the singer is aware of the consequences of staying in the relationship but feels helpless to change it.

The chorus line "Got you stuck on my body, on my body like a tattoo" implies that the singer is unable to let go of their partner and the memories and experiences they shared together. The metaphor of a tattoo suggests that the memory of the relationship will be with them for the rest of their life.
