Give me just another night
Just another night with you
Give me just another kiss
Just before the dawn breaks through

'Cause I'm homesick
I feel a little down and blue
And I'm hurting
Hurting, baby, just like you

I was lonely 'til I saw you at the station
And I never thought you'd keep our rendezvous

Baby it's true


Give me just another night
Just another night with you
Give me just another kiss
Just before the dawn breaks through


'Cause I'm hungry
Hungry for your loving, baby
And I'm thirsty
Thirsty for your loving, baby

And a one-day pass to heaven is so hard to find
And a one-night pass ain't really what I had in mind

I need your sweet tenderness
I need your soft caress
I know the day is coming

Don't take away your loving
Can't you see that I'm human?

Oh....
Yeah...

Just because you've seen my face
Just because you know my name
I'm a stranger in this town

Can't I have my ups and downs?
Can't you see that I'm human?

I get hungry
I get thirsty
I get moody
I need attention

I need your love

I need your love

I want your love

Give me just another night
Just another night with you
'Cause I'm freezing
In this hundred-dollar hotel room

Don't make me leave you
No, don't you be so cruel

Ra-ta-ta, ra-ta-ta-lo-lo, nah



TrackTalk

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bill (Laswell) did that. And I think we did it well before When Doves Cry. It was almost contemporary. See, I'm a big Prince fan, I'm not gonna hide that. He was on our '81 tour...

- Mick Jagger, 1984, told the song
has an almost Prince-like piano attack
