Missed my alarm and now I can't make up the time
I spilled my coffee on my favorite shirt
I tried to clean it but I make it worse
On top of that I'm hitting every light
I missed a meeting 'cause of course my phone just died
I'm doin' circles in the parking lot
Man, I just want this day to stop
But I saw you there on the corner of Sixth
When I look back now and it all makes sense
You'll be gone
Yeah, you'll be gone
What if I missed you?
What if my lips had never kissed you?
I wanna believe that we were gonna happen anyway
But if I took a turn a second late
What if I missed you?
Would someone else be there to kiss you?
I wanna believe that we were gonna happen anyway
But if I took a turn a second late
What if I missed you?
And now I'm thinkin' every time I watch you sleep
That you could wake up with someone who isn't me
And I still think about it every day
How quickly both our lives would change
If you hadn't walked down the corner of Sixth
I'd never know what love would've been
You'd be gone
Yeah, you'd be gone
What if I missed you?
What if my lips had never kissed you?
I wanna believe that we were gonna happen anyway
But if I took a turn a second late
What if I missed you?
Would someone else be there to kiss you?
I wanna believe that we were gonna happen anyway
But if I took a turn a second late
What if I missed you?
If you hadn't walked down the corner of Sixth
I'd never know what love would've been
You'd be gone
Yeah, you'd be gone
The song "The One" by Jesse McCartney talks about the importance of chance encounters and missed opportunities in relationships. Starting with a series of unlucky events that have messed up his day, the singer sees his love interest on the corner of Sixth street and realizes that if he had missed her at that exact moment, their entire relationship would never have happened. The song is a reflection on how one missed chance can change a person's life and how important it is to seize the opportunities given.
The lyrics showcase the idea that life is full of unexpected turns and how one wrong step could result in a completely different outcome. In this case, if Jesse McCartney had missed that person, he would never have experienced love in the same way. The lyrics suggest that we need to cherish and seize the opportunities given to us because they might not come around again.
Overall, the lyrics are an invitation to reflect on our lives and see how many of our present situations have been a result of a missed opportunity or a chance encounter.

I just woke up feelin' like I turned all night
I feel exhausted from not getting enough sleep and it's affecting my day
Missed my alarm and now I can't make up the time
I overslept and now I'm running late for everything
I spilled my coffee on my favorite shirt
I had a minor accident which is causing me more stress
I tried to clean it but I make it worse
I thought I could fix the problem but I actually made it worse
On top of that I'm hitting every light
I'm having a streak of bad luck and everything seems to be going wrong
I missed a meeting 'cause of course my phone just died
I missed an important event due to a technical mishap
I'm doin' circles in the parking lot
I'm lost and frustrated and can't seem to find my way
Man, I just want this day to stop
I'm having a terrible day and just want it to be over
But I saw you there on the corner of Sixth
Despite everything going wrong, I saw you and it gave me hope
When I look back now and it all makes sense
Hindsight has shown me that everything had to happen the way it did for us to meet
You'll be gone
I'm afraid that I might lose you
What if I missed you?
I worry about what would happen if I had never met you
What if my lips had never kissed you?
I wonder how different my life would be if we had never been together
I wanna believe that we were gonna happen anyway
I want to believe that fate brought us together regardless of the challenges we faced that day
But if I took a turn a second late
I understand that timing played a crucial role in us meeting
Would someone else be there to kiss you?
I question what would have happened if our paths had never crossed
And now I'm thinkin' every time I watch you sleep
I can't help but think about how happy and lucky I am to have you in my life
That you could wake up with someone who isn't me
I worry about the possibility of losing you to someone else
And I still think about it every day
I constantly reflect on how fortunate I am to have met you
How quickly both our lives would change
I understand that if we never met, our lives would be completely different
If you hadn't walked down the corner of Sixth
I credit our meeting to a chance encounter on the corner of Sixth
I'd never know what love would've been
If we had never met, I would have never experienced the love we share
You'd be gone
I'm still afraid of losing you
