A native of Reading, England, Lewis first became interested in music in his teens and played in several bands before he started experimenting with remixing tracks. Influenced by the introspective pop of Bon Iver and James Blake, as well as the club-ready hip-hop of artists like Common, Timbaland, and the Neptunes, Lewis began posting his own evocative, moody tracks online. He quickly built a loyal following, and eventually nabbed a residency DJ'ing at London's Chibuku Club.
In 2014, his remix of Jessie Ware's song "You & I (Forever)" caught the attention of Ware's label, PMR Records, who then signed him. A year later, he released his debut EP, Shivers. In 2016, Lewis delivered his sophomore EP, Yours, which included the track "Holding Back," featuring Gallant. Lewis' 2017 output consisted of the Toulouse-aided single "Times We Had" and the solo track "Smart Aleck Kill." He returned in January 2018 with "Aura," a bright yet low-key track featuring vocalist J Warner. The song appeared on the disco-influenced Dusk, which kicked off a trilogy of club-centric EPs slated to appear under the combined full-length album title of Dusk, Dark, Dawn. Meanwhile, he continued releasing singles including 2019's "Blue" and the Clairo collaboration "Throwaway." ~ Matt Collar
One More
SG Lewis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know you've got friends in the bathroom stall
Been wanna do this since I met you
Can we just stay here for (one)
You'll just get distracted and see someone you know
I'll be waiting getting impatient all alone
Go out on the balcony, light myself a smoke
They just might invite me to see another spot
You'll be tryna find me again but I'll be gone
We'll forget each other, the night will carry on
But that don't have to happen
And that's not what I want, 'cause
I know you can't stay here forever
I know you've got friends in the bathroom stall
Been wanna do this since I met you
Can we just stay here for one more song
If you leave now I might forget you
The memory fades when I'm way too gone
Was hoping we'd wake up together
Maybe just stay here for one more song
Maybe just stay here for one more song
Now imagine that you stay and we just keep it going
Just another couple minutes in the vibe we're on
Then I'll come with you where you're going and we'll both take one
Feeling rushing over both of us
So we'll go out on the balcony
Light ourselves a smoke
Start talking to people that we don't even know
Maybe call a taxi, to hit another spot
But this time you'll be with me, and yeah that's what I want, 'cause
I know you can't stay here forever
I know you've got friends in the bathroom stall
Been wanna do this since I met you
Can we just stay here for one more song
If you leave now might forget you
The memory fades when I'm way too gone
Was hoping we'd wake up together
Maybe just stay here for one more song
I know you can't stay here forever
Maybe just stay here for one more song
The song "One More" by SG Lewis is all about wanting to spend just a little more time with someone before they leave. The lyrics suggest that the singer has met someone they really like and wants to spend more time with them, but realizes that they can't stay forever. The line "I know you can't stay here forever" suggests that the two of them are together in some kind of social setting like a club or a bar, and the other person has to leave soon. However, the singer is hoping that they can stay just a little longer and enjoy each other's company.
The lyrics also mention that the other person has friends in the bathroom stall, which implies that they are in a loud, crowded, and somewhat chaotic environment. The singer is worried that if they let the other person go, they'll get distracted and see someone else they know, and the two of them might lose track of each other. To prevent that from happening, the singer is trying to convince the other person to stay for just one more song.
In the second half of the song, the singer suggests that they could continue hanging out and have an even better time together, potentially going to another location and getting to know each other even more. Overall, the song is about seizing the moment and trying to make the most of the time that they have together.

SG Lewis needs to blow up HARD. His music is absolutely phenomenal, and embodies the vibe of summer evenings like no other.
