The song itself was a tale of a yearning love from afar, which leads many aficionados to term it as a tale of&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unrequited_love" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 102, 204);">unrequited love</a>&nbsp;endured by Hayward. Hayward said of the song, "It was just another song I was writing and I thought it was very powerful. It was a very personal song and every note, every word in it means something to me and I found that a lot of other people have felt that very same way about it."<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nights_in_White_Satin#cite_note-Daily_Cut-10" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 102, 204);">^[10]</a>&nbsp;Hayward also said:</p><blockquote>So with "Nights", I sat on the side of the bed and just wrote the two verses. I was at the end of one big love affair and the beginning of another. These are the things that boys, when they're in the middle of love affairs, they think about. Every word in that song makes perfect sense to me, but trying to explain it to someone is difficult. I mean, I lived every one of the lines in that song.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nights_in_White_Satin#cite_note-guitar-11" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(51, 102, 204);">^[11]</a></blockquote><p><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/Nights_in_White_Satin_-_Billboard_ad_1968.jpg/250px-Nights_in_White_Satin_-_Billboard_ad_1968.jpg"></p>
