One Look
LVTHER Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know there's something that I saw about your ways
I hear it calling out for days
No reason or a doubt that I'm amazed
But you're backing off and don't see things

So why, why, oh why
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
So why, why, oh why
You took one look but you play me like a game
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
You took one look but you play me like a game

I can see you
I can, I can see you
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
I can see you
I can, I can see you
You took one look but you play me like a game

You're running but you barely even hide
Running just to make me feel alive
So it's one for the two and two for the four, we go
Feeling like our lives been going slow

So why, why, oh why
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
So why, why, oh why
You took one look but you play me like a game
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
You took one look but you play me like a game

(x2)
I can see you
I can, I can see you
It took one look and now you stare at me the same
I can see you




I can, I can see you
You took one look but you play me like a game

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to LVTHER's song "One Look" are about a relationship where the singer is expressing their frustration towards their partner. They have noticed something about their partner that they've been calling out about for days, but their partner doesn't seem to understand or acknowledge it. Despite being amazed by their partner, they feel like they're being played like a game. The singer can see through their partner's actions and intentions but is still struggling to make sense of it all. The chorus repeats "It took one look and now you stare at me the same" and "You took one look but you play me like a game," emphasizing that their partner's initial impression of them was wrong and now they're making it worse by playing games.


The second verse reveals that the partner is running away but not doing a great job of it, as they are still making the singer feel alive. The singer's perspective is metaphorically that of watching time slow down, as they feel like their life has been going slowly because of the stagnancy in their relationship with their partner. The chorus repeats again to make the point that the partner's actions have not changed and the singer continues to feel like they're being played.


Overall, "One Look" is about the frustration that comes with being in a relationship where one partner feels like they are putting in more effort or understanding than the other. The lyrics imply that the relationship is not going well, and the singer feels like their partner is playing games with them. Despite their partner's actions, the singer can see through them and is making a final plea to end the games and get to the core issues of the relationship.
