In the Still of the Night
Embracing Love's Whisper
Lyrics
In the still of the night
Reflecting on a quiet and serene night
I held you
Expressing physical closeness by holding the person
Held you tight
Emphasizing the tightness of the embrace
'Cause I love
Affirming deep affection and love
Love you so
Reiterating intense love for the person
Promise I'll never
Pledging a commitment to never let go
Let you go
Reassuring the loved one of the commitment
In the still of the night
Recalling a specific moment in the quiet night
I remember
Reflecting on a past memory
That night in May
Remembering a particular night in May
The stars were bright above
Describing the brightness of the stars
I'll hope and I'll pray
Expressing hope and prayer for the relationship
To keep
Expressing a desire to maintain the love
Your precious love
Referring to the loved one's valuable affection
Well before the light
Before the break of day, indicating the passage of time
Hold me again
Requesting to be held once more
With all of your might
Asking for a strong and sincere embrace
In the still of the night
Returning to the stillness of the night theme
So before the light
Repeating the desire to be held before daybreak
Hold me again
Reiterating the request for a comforting embrace
With all of your might
Emphasizing the intensity of the desired embrace
In the still of the night
Closing with a repetition of the quiet night setting
In the still of the night
Reiterating the enduring stillness of the night
