One Time
Julian Taylor Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Moonlight, underground
A wild heart, keeps beating
Moonlight on the mountainside
Without a trace, footprints fleeting

So give it all
All that you can be
So give it all,
Give it all up to me

Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one more time I'll always be by your side

Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one more time I'll always be by your side


Sunrise, hypnotizedi (in-in-in-in-innocent)
Still her eyes say she's goin' under
Oh, no! What to do tomorrow?
Sunlight in the afternoon (in-in-in-in-innocent)
Wide-awake... crashing waves like thunder

And there she lies,
Surrounding everything
So give it all
Leave it (all) up to me

Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one more time I'll (always) be by your side

Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one time to feel your light
Give me one more time I'll always be by your side





Oh there she lies. Innocent
Oh there she lies. Innocent

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Julian Taylor Band's song "One Time" paint a vivid picture of a passionate and fleeting encounter. The opening lines, "Moonlight, underground / A wild heart, keeps beating," evoke a sense of secrecy and intensity. The moonlight symbolizes the hidden and mysterious nature of the relationship, while the underground signifies it is something outside the norm, perhaps even forbidden.


The chorus, "Give me one time to feel your light / Give me one more time I'll always be by your side," reveals a desire for a brief moment of connection and intimacy. It suggests that the singer yearns for a chance to experience the other person's inner light, their essence. It is a plea to be allowed into their world, even if just for a short time. The singer promises to remain devoted, to always be by their side, even if it can only be for that one moment.


The second verse introduces the idea of a sunrise and being hypnotized. The innocence mentioned in the lyrics implies a loss of control, a surrender to the overwhelming emotions and desires. The crashing waves like thunder symbolize the intense and tumultuous nature of their connection. Despite the uncertainty of what the future holds, the singer is captivated by the other person and ponders what lies ahead.
