You're The One
Gallagher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll admit you're gone - when I think I'm able,
Just like in that song, you turned all the tables,
Now I know I'm wrong, life is hard to shoulder,
I won't last too long, each day is getting colder.
Falling constantly, shadows haunting me,
Moving silently, day by day,
Watching hopefully, waiting anxiously,
That you might hear me, someday.
That's what I pray,
That's all I pray,
I'm gonna be ok, it's gonna be okay.

Looking ahead, there's nothing but blue days,
But somehow I keep hanging on.
I should spend time looking for new ways,
'Cos blue days have taken quite a toll.

The journey we were on - can't believe it's over,
I can feel the storm, but I can't run for cover.
Where do I belong I just keep on searchin'?
I want to see the dawn of the day when stop hurting.

Falling constantly, shadows haunting me,
Moving silently, day by day.
Watching hopefully, anxiously,
That you might hear me, someday.
That's what I pray,




That's all I pray,
It's gonna be ok, I'm gonna be okay.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Gallagher's song "You're the One" express the singer's pain and longing after a failed relationship. He admits the fact that the person he loved has left him, but acknowledges that he is still struggling to accept it. The line "Just like in that song, you turned all the tables" refers to a classic pop song where the singer was in control of the relationship, but in this case, the tables have turned on the singer.


The chorus's repeated lyrics, "Falling constantly, shadows haunting me, Moving silently, day by day, Watching hopefully, waiting anxiously, That you might hear me, someday" convey the singer's desire to reconcile with his former partner, but also his fear that he might never be able to communicate his feelings effectively. The second verse expresses this fear further, with the line "Where do I belong, I just keep on searching," highlighting the singer's lack of direction and purpose since the relationship ended.


The phrase "Looking ahead, there's nothing but blue days" suggests that the singer is pessimistic about his future and that he must search for a new perspective to overcome his current pain. However, he still clings onto the hope that things will get better and that he will eventually find a way to move on. The song's overall theme is the difficulty of accepting change and the pain that comes with it.
