One Night
Yearning for One Night: Elvis Presley's Love Longing
Lyrics
One night with you
Expressing a desire for a single night spent together.
Is what I'm now praying for
Currently hoping for the experience of being with the person.
The things that we two could plan
Imagining the possibilities and plans that could be made together.
Would make my dreams come true
Believing that these plans would fulfill the speaker's dreams.
Just call my name
Inviting the person to call the speaker's name.
And I'll be right by your side
Expressing readiness to be with the person immediately upon their call.
I want your sweet helping hand
Desiring the person's supportive and comforting touch.
My loves too strong to hide
Asserting that the speaker's love is too powerful to be concealed.
Always lived, very quiet life
Reflecting on a history of leading a quiet, uneventful life.
I ain't never did no wrong
Claiming innocence and a lack of wrongdoing in the past.
Now I know that life without you
Acknowledging that life without the person has been lonely.
Has been too lonely too long
Realizing the prolonged loneliness experienced without the person.
One night with you
Reiterating the desire for a single night together.
Is what I'm now praying for
Continuing the expression of the current prayer for shared time.
The things that we two could plan
Emphasizing the potential plans that could make dreams a reality.
Would make my dreams come true
Reaffirming the belief that joint plans would be fulfilling.
Always lived, very quiet life
Recalling the past of leading a quiet, uneventful life.
I ain't never did no wrong
Reasserting innocence and lack of wrongdoing in the speaker's history.
Now I know that life without you
Repeating the acknowledgment of loneliness without the person.
Has been too lonely too long
Reiterating the awareness of prolonged loneliness in the absence of the person.
One night with you
Expressing once again the longing for a single night together.
Is what I'm now praying for
Restating the current hope for a shared experience with the person.
The things that we two could plan
Echoing the idea that joint plans could bring about dream fulfillment.
Would make my dreams come true
Reaffirming the belief that shared experiences would make dreams come true.
