One Night Stand
Rock 'n Roll Revelry: A Musical Journey of Love and Freedom
Lyrics
The lights go down the band prepares
The lights dim as the band gets ready.
The scene is set we're here to sell our wares
The stage is set, and they are there to sell their music.
And we know that truth is an ever guiding light
They believe that truth is a constant guiding force.
So we sing our songs each and every night
They perform their songs every night.
Do you know can you feel it do you understand
Asking if the listener can comprehend the experience of being in a rock 'n roll band.
What it's like to be living in a rock 'n roll band
Describing the lifestyle of living in a rock 'n roll band.
Up and down the land on a one night stand
Travelling from place to place for one-night performances.
Well I've sworn that I'd been in this place before
Expressing a sense of déjà vu or familiarity with the situation.
Yes I wrote my name on the dressing room wall
Having left their mark in the dressing room from a previous performance.
It was another band on a one night stand
Reflecting on another band's experience on a one-night stand.
And it's all for the music
Stating that their motivation is purely for the love of music.
Love is in the band
Love is a central theme within the band.
And freedom we command
Emphasizing their commitment to freedom.
On a one night stand
Reiterating the transient nature of their performances on a one-night stand.
(One night stand)
(One night stand)
-And it's all for the music
Repeating the dedication to music and the band's love.
Love is in the band
Love remains a significant aspect within the band.
Freedom (freedom) we command
Reaffirming their commitment to freedom.
On a one night stand
Highlighting the transient nature of their performances on a one-night stand.
The lights go down the band prepares
Repeating the scene as the lights dim and the band readies.
The scene is set we're here to sell our wares
Reiterating that they are there to present and sell their music.
And we know that truth is an ever guiding light
Re-emphasizing the belief in truth as a guiding force.
So we sing our songs each and every night
Continuing their commitment to performing every night.
Do you know can you feel it do you understand
Posing the question again about understanding the rock 'n roll band experience.
What it's like to be living in a rock 'n roll band
Describing the rock 'n roll lifestyle, with constant travel and performances.
Up and down the land on a one night stand
Highlighting the transient nature of one-night stands across the land.
Well I've sworn that I'd been in this place before
Recalling a sense of familiarity or repetition in their experiences.

Confirming their presence through a signature on the dressing room wall.
