Please let me hold you one more time
Before you walk away my, dear
Please let me hold you near
I love you dear
So let me kiss you one more time
I know I'm gonna miss you so
My darling when, you go
I'll miss you so so
So let me stay my dear
For just another moment or two
Then I'll have
The memory of you
To see me though so
So let me hold you one more time
And let me kiss you one more
That's all I'll ever ask of you
Unless you say that you
Still love me too
For maybe one more time (one more)
Is all I need (one more)
Just one more time (one more)
And maybe you will see that I'm (one more)
Your one and only love
Let me stay for just another moment
A moment a, moment or two
Then I'll have the memory of you
To see me through
To see me through
To see me through
So let me hold you one more time
And let me kiss you one more time
That's all I'll ever ask of you
Unless you say that you
Still love me too
For maybe one more time (one more)
Is all I need (one more)
Just one more time (one more)
And maybe you will see that I'm
Your one and only love (your love)
Your one and only love (your love)
Your one and only love (your love)
One more time
The lyrics to Ray Charles's "One More Time" express a plea from the singer to hold and kiss his lover one more time before she leaves him. He begs to be allowed to bask in her presence for just another moment, in hopes that it will provide him with a lasting memory of her when she is gone. He expresses his love for the woman, acknowledging that he knows he will miss her deeply when she goes.
The repetition of the phrase "one more time" throughout the song emphasizes the singer's desperation for just a few extra moments with his lover. The lyrics create a sense of finality, as if the singer knows that this may be his last chance to hold and kiss his beloved. The plea is emotional and heartfelt, and the longing expressed in the lyrics is palpable.

This is one of my favorite Ray Price songs. It's always fun to sing it at dances. It has an operatic feel to it while singing the chorus. Such power,such range that Mr.Price puts into the song. I am blessed to be able to sing it . There is always a buzz in the room at dances when this song is played. It's as if the entire room has been energized. Just thought I would share that feeling. Thanks!

If anyone can't appreciate these songs by Ray and the other great country crooners, they must be numb, bordering on dead.
