One Life
Crystal Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've been right, and I've been wrong
I've been weak, and you've been strong
You've been good, and I've been bad
Think I've had enough of that

Cause all I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might
All I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might

I love the days, you love the nights
I love to love, you love to fight
I talk to you, you're far away
And it gets harder everyday

Cause all I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might
All I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might

I wish you could be a friend of mine
I wish you could learn to play with time
You say I dream my life away
If I do, well that's okay

Cause all I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might




All I wanna do in life is to
Love somebody with all of my might

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Crystal's song "One Life" convey a deep introspection on the dynamics of a relationship where one person feels inadequate and desires a more balanced and loving connection. In the first verse, the singer acknowledges the disparities in the relationship, admitting the instances where they have faltered and highlighting the strength and goodness of their partner. The realization that they have had enough of this unbalanced dynamic suggests a desire for change and a yearning for a more equitable and fulfilling relationship.


The chorus emphasizes the singer's primary desire in life - to love wholeheartedly and passionately. The repetition of the phrase "Love somebody with all of my might" underscores the intensity of this longing for a deep and sincere connection. It encapsulates the essence of the singer's yearning for a love that is all-encompassing and unwavering.


The second verse delves deeper into the contrasting preferences and communication barriers within the relationship. The singer appreciates aspects of their partner that differ from their own inclinations, such as the love for nighttime and the inclination towards confrontation. The distance highlighted in the line "I talk to you, you're far away" could symbolize emotional detachment or a lack of understanding between them, further complicating their bond.


The final verse expresses a wish for a more harmonious and supportive relationship, where the singer could feel a genuine connection and understanding. The desire for the partner to be a friend and to learn to appreciate and make time for each other reflects a longing for mutual respect and companionship. The acceptance of dreaming as a valid pursuit, despite criticisms, signifies a defiance against societal norms and a commitment to staying true to oneself. The repetition of the chorus underscores the singer's unwavering determination to pursue love with all their strength and devotion, despite the challenges they face.

Hey Lizzie! This might be a stupid idea, but why don't you make something like that underwater cave from The Little Mermaid? You know, the one where she keeps all the stuff she's collected?

That way, you could show off all the cool stuff you've collected/made (like crystals, flowers, backpacks, etc.) in a way thay fits with the mermaid theme of your house, and not risk your house getting too cluttered with items. It could also act as a vault/second storage space if your chest starts filling up and you're running out of places to put things.

So...underwater cave/mermaid grotto...

Uh...like so Lizzie can see?

Edit: 405 likes? Wow, thanks you guys!

Underwater is used in a figurative sense. The build iteslf doesn't have to be underwater. The aesthetic could make it seem like it belongs deep beneath the sea. Or, the way to the cove could be "underwater" where you have to take a water filled path or a path surrounded by glass, and water on the outside, so its less dangerous with a lower chance of drowning.
