One More Night
Saleka Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Meet me in the hotel lobby
At midnight
I'm in my red dress just for you

Waited for you at the party
I've lost sight
Done all I said I wouldn't do
And I cannot believe I'm crying, crying
After all the times I've played this game before
I cannot believe I'm trying, trying

Thought we'd have one more night
Just one more night, before I said goodbye
Could you give me one more night
Just one more night, before I say goodbye

All you gotta do is say my name
I'll be there
I am powerless with you

I'm the only one that's left to blame
I don't care
Rewrite your requiem for two

And I cannot believe I'm crying, crying
After all the times I've lost this game before
I cannot believe I'm trying, trying, ooh

Thought we'd have one more night
Just one more night, before I said goodbye
Could you give me one more night, just one more night
Before I say goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Fire and greed
Make their way to my soul

I watch you leave
Then lay down on the cold floor

One more night, just one more night




Before I say goodbye
One more night, one more night

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Saleka's song "One More Night" tell the story of a person who is desperately holding onto a crumbling relationship. The singer asks their partner to meet them in the hotel lobby at midnight, wearing a red dress as a symbol of their devotion. They waited for their partner at a party, trying to adhere to their expectations, but ultimately end up going against their own promises. Despite their past experiences playing this "game" before, they find themselves surprised and devastated that they are still crying and trying to salvage the relationship.


The chorus expresses the singer's longing for one more night with their partner before saying goodbye. They plead for just a little more time, hoping that it will somehow make a difference and give them the closure they need. They are willing to do anything for their partner, declaring that all the partner needs to do is say their name and they will be there, showing the powerlessness they feel in the face of their love. However, they also acknowledge that they are the only one to blame for their current situation and that they don't care about the consequences. They are willing to rewrite their shared story, begging for one more chance to make things right. The song ends with a feeling of resignation and sorrow as the singer watches their partner leave and is left alone, lying on the cold floor.


Overall, the song explores themes of desperation, heartbreak, and the willingness to fight for a relationship that is on the verge of crumbling. It showcases the complexities of love and the pain that comes with holding onto something that is slipping away.


Line by Line Meaning

Meet me in the hotel lobby
Let's meet in a private setting, away from prying eyes


At midnight
When the world is sleeping, we will rendezvous


I'm in my red dress just for you
I've dressed up to impress and seduce only you


Waited for you at the party
I patiently anticipated your arrival at the social gathering


I've lost sight
I've lost my inhibitions and sense of direction


Done all I said I wouldn't do
I've gone against my own promises and succumbed to temptation


And I cannot believe I'm crying, crying
I'm surprised and overwhelmed by my own tears


After all the times I've played this game before
Despite my past experiences with similar situations


I cannot believe I'm trying, trying
I'm astonished that I'm still making an effort


Thought we'd have one more night
I had hoped for another night together


Just one more night, before I said goodbye
Before bidding farewell, just one more night with you


Could you give me one more night
Would you grant me the gift of another night together


Just one more night, before I say goodbye
Only one more night before I utter my farewell


All you gotta do is say my name
Simply speak my name and I'll be by your side


I'll be there
I'll come to you without hesitation


I am powerless with you
You hold all the control and influence over me


I'm the only one that's left to blame
I take full responsibility for the situation


I don't care
I no longer feel bothered or concerned


Rewrite your requiem for two
Let's change the ending of our shared tragedy


Fire and greed
Passion and selfish desire


Make their way to my soul
They consume and affect me deeply


I watch you leave
As you depart, I observe in silence


Then lay down on the cold floor
Subsequently, I lie down, feeling the coldness beneath me


One more night, just one more night
Yearning for another night together, just one more


Before I say goodbye
Before I bid my final farewell


One more night, one more night
Another night, one last time

One more night, just one more night
Before I say goodbye
One more night, one more night
