Song Review
Following up on my Your Ex-Lover is Dead post, I’ve got another installment in the Stars‘ saga of a relationship gone sour. One More Night (Your Ex-Lover Remains Dead) is the 7th track from the band’s Juno nominated 2005 release Set Yourself on Fire. Running in the category of Alternative Album of the Year, the album would lose out to fellow Broken Social Scene member Feist‘s Let It Die.
Try as he might he’s unable to speak
He grabs her by the hair, he strokes her on the cheek
The bed is unmade like everything is
Dark little heaven at the top of the stairs
Take me like that, ruin it all
Then build it again by the light in the hall
He drops to his knees says please my love, please
I’ll kill who you hate, take off that dress, you won’t freeze
One more night, that was a good one
One more night, i dreamed it was a good one
One more, one more night, that was a good one
One more night, the end should be a good one
A good one
He starts with her back cause that’s what he sees
When she’s breaking his heart she still fucks like a tease
Release to the sky, look him straight in the eye
And tell him that now, that you wish he would die
You’ll never touch him again so get what you can
Leaving him empty just because he’s a man
So good when it ends, they’ll never be friends
One more night, that’s all they can spend
One more night, that was a good one
One more night, i dreamed it was a good one
One more, one more night, that was a good one
One more night, the end should be a good one
A good one
