The One
Kylie Minogue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Starlight shimmers everywhere
There's a certain something in the air
Can you feel what I feel in me?
It's in the air, electricity oh, oh

Glimmering under neon lights
I can see the look, that's in your eyes
Like a shooting star in a galaxy
Making its way to the heart of me

I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me

My pulse is racing and I'm feeling high
Never-ending starts tonight
When you do what you do to me
Come on and let yourself feel the need in me, oh, oh

Circling and we're getting close
Can you imagine, just suppose
It's a feeling that I need to know
Close to touch like Michelangelo

I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me
I'm the one
Love me, love me, love me, love me

Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you
Can you feel me?
I'll do anything to have you near me
I was wondering, will you reach me?

Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you
Can you feel me?
I'll do anything to have you near me
I was wondering, will you reach me?

I'm the one
Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you
Can you feel me?
I'll do anything to have you near me
I was wondering, will you reach me?

I'm the one
Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you
Can you feel me?




I'll do anything to have you near me
I was wondering, will you reach me?

Overall Meaning

The song "The One" by Kylie Minogue has a very upbeat and high-energy feel to it, and the lyrics definitely reflect this. The song is essentially about trying to connect with someone on a deeper level, and the electricity and energy that comes with that. The chorus repeats the line "I'm the one, love me, love me, love me, love me," which seems to imply that the singer is the one that the listener should be focusing their attention on. The verses talk about the "starlight shimmering everywhere" and "glimmering under neon lights," which gives the sense that the singer and the person they are addressing are in some sort of party or dance setting. The cadence of the lyrics and the repetition of certain phrases also adds to the overall energy of the song, and makes it a great track to dance to.


The lyrics of "The One" were written by Minogue herself, along with Richard Stannard, who has also worked with artists like the Spice Girls and Ellie Goulding. The song was produced by Stannard and his frequent collaborator, Julian Gallagher. "The One" was released in 2008 as a single from Minogue's album "X," which was her tenth studio album. The song received some critical acclaim upon its release, and it has remained a popular track in Minogue's repertoire to this day.

THE ONE
by Kylie Minogue

Starlight shimmers everywhere.
There's a certain something in the air.
Can you feel what I feel in me?
It's in the air, electricity, oh, oh.

Glimmering under neon lights.
I can see the look that's in your eyes.
Like a shooting star in a galaxy,
Making its way to the heart of me.

[Chorus:]
I'm the one.
Love me, love me, love me, love me.
I'm the one.
Love me, love me, love me, love me.
I'm the one.
Love me, love me, love me, love me.
I'm the one.
Love me, love me, love me, love me.

My pulse is racing and I'm feeling high.
Never-ending starts tonight.
When you do what you do to me,
Come on and let yourself feel the need in me.

Circling, and we're getting close.
Can you imagine? Just suppose.
It's a feeling that I need to know.
Close to touch like Michelangelo.

[Chorus]

Can you hear me?
I'm connecting with you.
Can you feel me?
I'll do anything to have you near me.
I was wondering, will you reach me?
[Repeat 3x]
