One Love
A.M.P. Halycyon Steel Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never find I'm missing love.
Remembering all parades that had been rained on
But never cloudy leaving love.
Ask me what it is that makes it special
Why it's so real to me.
It's knowing who keeps their place in my heart,
It's knowing never will I change my mind,
When I think about love I think about you.
When I think about love I think about you.
Too many times I've turned my emotions on and off
Without realizing what it does.
I know what's moved me and kept me going this far
But I never questioned what it was.
