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

'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?

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 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

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
