One Love
Mary J Blige and U2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
I couldn't sleep thinking about
All the things that we've been through
Now all I want to do is tell you
That I miss you so much
You know I really really miss you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
Now that I'm on my own
I know that in time I'll find somebody new
Who'll treat me better than you
So now that I'm all alone without you
But I still love you
You know I'll never live without you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you (pretty memories)
I wish you'd change your ways soon enough
So we can be together
You just don't understand the word love
But now all we have is memories
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
All those pretty memories
I know you can hear me now
For the record I love you, I love you
The lyrics to Mary J Blige Ft. Smit And Wesson's song I Love You Remix are touching and emotional. The song is about a breakup, and the singer is speaking to their former lover. They are reminiscing about the good times they shared and expressing their love for the person. The lyrics suggest that the singer is trying to move on and find someone new, but they still love their former partner.
The opening lines, "All those pretty memories, I know you can hear me now," set the tone for the song. The singer is addressing their former lover, despite the fact that they are no longer together. They are acknowledging that the memories they shared are still with them and that their former partner is still a part of their life. The repeated line, "For the record, I love you," emphasizes the depth of the singer's feelings.
The second verse reveals that the singer is struggling to come to terms with the breakup. They are missing their former partner and hoping that they will change their ways and come back to them. However, they also acknowledge that they will find someone better in time. The chorus is then repeated, emphasizing the idea that the singer's love for their former partner is unwavering.

You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love is the higher law
You ask of me to enter
But then you made me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should!!!!!
@angelaluis4702
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
You say, one love, one life
When it's one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One!
Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much? More than a lot
You gave me nothin' now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other then we do it again
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holdin' on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One
