One Love
DAVID GUETTA/CHUCKIE/FATMAN SCOOP Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can anybody help me I'm outta plans
Guess I left my world in somebody's hands
I don't like to hurt but, but everyone gets weak
Someone to rely on that's what I really need

Now here we stay its all that we're worth
I've been through the pain and been dragged through the dirt
Whatever they tell you, we're bigger than words
I've been where you're standing, I know how it hurts
Let this be a song now and this be a day and we stand together we'll be okay
'Cause we're survivors were making it work, expecting the best when they hope for the worst

One love, this is the way we found
One love, even though they'll let you down
One love, nobody's perfect now
One love, don't let that hold you down

One love, let's stick together now
One love, we got to stand our ground
One love, it's easy to believe in
One love, believe in you and me
One love

Now I could try and fix this all by myself
But I know it'd turn out better if you help
No one likes to hurt but, but everyone gets weak
Someone to rely on that's what everybody needs

Now here we stay with all that we're worth
I've been through the pain and been dragged through the dirt
Whatever they tell you, we're bigger than words
I've been where you're standing, I know how it hurts
Let this be a song now and this be a day and we stand together we'll be okay
'Cause we're survivors were making it work, expecting the best when they hope for the worst

One love, this is the way we found
One love, even though they'll let you down
One love, nobody's perfect now
One love, don't let that hold you down

One love, lets stick together now
One love, we got to stand our ground
One love, it's easy to believe in
One love, believe in you and me

One love, it's one love
O-N-E L-O-V-E I'm here to tell you it's one love oh
Said it's one love
Sing with me one love




One love to be oh that's all we need
One love
