One More Love
Imagination Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every cloud has a silver lining
Every ship sail on silver sea
Every man can climb highest
Mountain
What about me
I hear the sound of something
In your voices
That a million brace that certain tone
Just when you confuse me
I understand that i dont know
I dont know
Could i been thinking more than i should
Am hoping for something i cant have
I Made it mistake of thinking
What not there
Someone somewhere tell me please
One more love
To take me, take me higher
One more love
Tell me touch the sky
One more love to take me
One more love ooh
One more one more aah
One more love
Could i been thinking
More than i should
Am i hoping for something
I cant have
I made a mistake of thinking
Was not there
Someone somewhere
Tell me please
One more love to take me take me higher
One more love tell me touch the sky
One more love to take me
One more love ahhh
One more one more aahh

One more love by ri ya na ooh

Transcribing:

Every cloud has a silver lining
Every ship sails on silver seas
Every man can climb the highest mountain
What about me? What about me? 

I hear the sound of something in your voice
That familiar phrase, that certain tone
And just when you confuse me, I understand
That I don't know - I don't know

Could I be thinking more than I should?
Am I hoping for something I can't have?
Or making mistake of thinking what's not there?*
Someone, somewhere, tell me please!

Chorus:
One more love to take me higher 
One more love to help me touch the sky
(One more love, one more love)
