Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been trying ooh so long to let you know
Let you know how I feel
And if I stumble if I fall, just help me back
So I can make you see
Please give me one more night, give me one more night
One more night cos I can't wait forever
Oh one more night cos I can't wait forever
I've been sitting here so long
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
And I was wondering should I call you
Then I thought maybe you're not alone
Please give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Please give me one more night, ooh just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Like a river to the sea
I will always be with you
And if you sail away
I will follow you
Give me one more night, give me just one more night
Oh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
I know there'll never be a time you'll ever feel the same
And I know it's only words
But if you change your mind you know that I'll be here
And maybe we both can learn
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever
Give me just one more night, give me just one more night
Ooh one more night, cos I can't wait forever

Line by Line Meaning
One more night, one more night
Asking for another night to try and express his feelings
I've been trying ooh so long to let you know
He has been trying for a long time to let his love interest know how he feels
Let you know how I feel
Wants to share his feelings with the other person
And if I stumble if I fall, just help me back
Asks for help in case he messes up
So I can make you see
Hopes to make the other person see his perspective
Please give me one more night, give me one more night
Asking again for another chance to express himself
One more night cos I can't wait forever
Can't wait indefinitely for the other person to reciprocate his love
I've been sitting here so long
He has been waiting for a while
Wasting time, just staring at the phone
He feels like he's wasting time by waiting
And I was wondering should I call you
He's considering calling the other person
Then I thought maybe you're not alone
He thinks there may be someone else with the other person
Like a river to the sea
Uses a metaphor to express his loyalty
I will always be with you
Promises to always be there for the other person
And if you sail away
Acknowledges the possibility that the other person might leave
I will follow you
Says he will still pursue the other person even if they leave
I know there'll never be a time you'll ever feel the same
Realistic that the other person may not reciprocate
And I know it's only words
Recognizes that his words may not be enough
But if you change your mind you know that I'll be here
Leaves the door open for the other person to change their mind
And maybe we both can learn
Sees the possibility of growth and learning in their relationship
