One And Only
Adele Ft Kanye West Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I grow fonder every day
Lose myself in time
Just thinking of your face
God only knows why it's taken me
So long to let my doubts go
You're the only one that I want
I've been here before
Every feeling, every word
I've imagined it all
You'll never know if you never try
To forget your past and simply be mine
I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
I promise I'm worthy
To hold in your arms
So come on and give me the chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
If I've been on your mind
You hang on every word I say
Lose yourself in time
At the mention of my name
Will I ever know how it feels to hold you close
And have you tell me
Whichever road I choose, you'll go?
I don't know why I'm scared
'Cause I've been here before
Every feeling, every word
I've imagined it all
You'll never know if you never try
To forget your past and simply be mine
I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
I promise I'm worthy, mm
To hold in your arms
So come on and give me the chance
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me I've learned it
Nobody's perfect
(I know it ain't easy giving up your heart)
Trust me I've learned it
So I dare you to let me be your, your one and only
I promise I'm worthy
To hold in your arms
So come on and give me the chance
To prove that I am the, one who can walk that mile
Until the end starts
Come on and give me the chance
To prove that I am the one who can, walk that mile
Until the end starts
In Adele ft Kanye West's song "One and Only," the lyrics express the singer’s longing for someone that she has been thinking about. She admits to growing more fond of this person every day and losing herself in thoughts about their face. She believes this person is the only one she wants, but she is scared to try and be with them because of her past doubts. The singer proposes that the person should forget their past and let her prove that she is the one who can be their "one and only" until the end starts.
The chorus of "One and Only" is a daring challenge to take a chance on love. Adele and West both contribute to the song as they sing about the passion that comes with loving someone. Adele’s voice is soulful and brilliantly blends together with West's more rap like style. Throughout the song, they highlight the idea that one should forget their past and take a leap of faith into the unknown. Similarly, they reiterate that nobody is perfect, but they are both willing to try their best to make things work.
