A high-energy garage-y, punk-like song, except that I sing and play in tune (I hope).
Written, performed, and produced by Tom O'Brien

One night, I was laying in bed waiting to get sleepy and, as often happens, I started thinking about my mortality, and how these may be the last thoughts I ever have in life - I could die in my sleep. But, then, I thought - wait! I can't die! I gotta have one more night with my baby! And the first verse and chorus practically vomited itself out of me in one whole piece. I had to get up from my comfy bed and write it down, because I knew I'd forget it in the morning otherwise.

Every night, Every night when I'm lying in bed
Dreams of you, dreams of you running through my head
Hoping that tomorrow I don't wake up dead
Cuz I gotta have
One more night with my baby
I gotta have one more night with my girl
I gotta have
One more night with my baby
Before I'm ready to leave this world
St.Peter, St. Peter
You can close those Pearly Gates
Cuz I know there's a Heaven and I'm meeting her at half past eight
There's something more important so, tell God he's gonna have to wait
Cuz I gotta have
One more night with my baby
I gotta have one more night with my girl
I gotta have
One more night with my baby
Before I'm ready to leave this world
When she makes those eyes at me
I just melt away
And the way she kisses me
Makes me wanna say:
I gotta have
One more night with my baby
I gotta have one more night with my girl
I gotta have
One more night with my baby
Before I'm ready to leave this world
