Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, baby, baby
Oh, baby, baby

Oh, baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here
Oh, baby, baby, I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now what we've got

My loneliness is killin' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

Oh, baby, baby, the reason I breathe is you
Boy, you've got me blinded
Oh, pretty baby, there's nothin' that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it

Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now what we've got

My loneliness is killing' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

Oh eh
Eh yeah

Oh, baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
Oh, pretty baby, I shouldn't have let you go

I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here and give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

My loneliness is killin' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

(I must confess)
My loneliness is killin' me
(That my loneliness is killing me now)
I must confess I still believe
(Don't you know I still believe)

When I'm not with you I lose my mind
(That you will be here)




Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

Overall Meaning

Drew's "One More Time" is a cover of Britney Spears' hit song, "Baby One More Time". The song is about a girl who misses her ex-boyfriend and wants him to come back to her. The first verse talks about how she wasn't aware that something was wrong in their relationship, and it wasn't until he left that she realized what she had lost. She asks for a sign and pleads for him to come back to her "one more time".


In the chorus, she reminisces about her love for him and how much she misses him. Her loneliness is taking a toll on her, and she can't stop thinking about him. She confesses that she still believes that they are meant to be together and that she loses her mind when he's not with her. She asks him to hit her up "one more time" and to give their relationship another chance.


The second verse speaks more about the girl's love for the boy and how he is the reason she breathes. She feels blinded by her love for him and is willing to do anything to get him back. The chorus repeats, and the girl continues to plead for him to come back to her.
