You're the One That I Want
ダミアン・ライス & Angus & Julia Stone Lyrics

The lyrics to “You’re the One That I Want” by Damien Rice and Angus & Julia Stone are a love confession from one person to another. The opening line of the song starts with “I got chills, they’re multiplying, and I’m losing control” which is an indication that this person is deeply in love and overwhelmed by their emotions. The next line, “‘Cause the power you’re supplying, it’s electrifying” reinforces the idea that this person is completely enamored with their significant other.

The chorus “You’re the one that I want, ooh ooh ooh, honey, the one that I want, ooh ooh ooh, honey,” is the extraction of the song that people are most familiar with. It makes it clear that the person who is singing to their lover only wants to be with them. The line “Can’t you see, oh yes indeed, oh yes indeed” emphasizes the intensity of the singer's feelings and desire to be with them forever.

The second half of the song shifts to showing how the two people in a relationship need to work together to keep their love strong. “If you’re filled with affection, you’re too shy to convey, meditate my direction, feel your way” is essentially saying that the person singing to their lover has an understanding of their partner's personality and they are working together to communicate and grow their relationship. The chorus repeats again, showing that the singer's love is unwavering and constant.
