One More Night was the Dutch entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2003 in Riga performed by Esther Hart.
The song is an up-tempo number, with Hart describing the feelings one gets by being "with the one you love". She asks to be given "One more night, give me one more day" to experience these feelings and resist the world ("come what may").
The song was performed 14th on the night following Israel and preceding the United Kingdom. At the close of voting, it finished in 13th place with 45 points.
Lyrics[]
One more night
There’s a fire that burns within us
A flame that never dies
Like a river that runs right through me
A river, old and wise
A power that can’t be stopped, oh no
If you’re with the one you love
You’ll never rise above
Being with the one you love
Give me one more night, give me one more day
And now and forever, baby, come what may
Give me one more night, give me one more day
Well, let me hold you now and please stay one more night
There’s a bright light that shines upon us
A light as old as time
And there’s a flower that keeps on growing
As long as we two rhyme
A power that can’t be stopped, oh no
If you’re with the one you love
(If you’re with the one you love)
You’ll never rise above
Being with the one you love
Give me one more night, give me one more day
And now and forever, baby, come what may
Give me one more night, give me one more day
Well, let me hold you now and please stay one more night
Take my hand and I will lead the way
We’re all in need of a brighter day, yeah
Take a stand and it’ll be okay
You’re all I need, so don’t delay
Come here and say you’re gonna stay
One more night, give me one more day
Now and forever, baby, come what may
Give me one more night, give me one more day
Now and forever, baby, come what may
Give me one more night, give me one more day
Well, let me hold you now and please stay, yeah…
(One more night, give me one more day)
(Now and forever, baby, come what may)
Give me one more night, give me one more day
Well, let me hold you now (Let me hold you now)
And please stay one more night
