In the song “One More Night,” Brown offers additional perspective on the changes in town as well as his own mortality. Now in
his mid-thirties, he became a father for the first time over the summer. This song celebrates youth and the inevitable loss of youth
and friendships as age and adulthood take over.
I guess Bobby was right, the “times are a changin’”
The places we once knew, are only getting stranger
So meet me on the rooftop we can see this city’s heart
Beating back the changing tide before it gets too dark
Just one more night, of hangin’ on rooftops
Just one more night, with my best friends
Just one more time, before everything changes
And everything golden comes to an end
