One Of A Kind
Ronan Keating & Emeli Sandé Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Late night
Butterflies
Tomorrow's playing
Playing on my mind
And I'm counting down the seconds

Whiskey neat
To tame the nerves
Can't wait to see
The way they look at you
Answering the question

Just say you do

Your love is one of a kind
And I'm not alone anymore
Just when I thought I was lost
I saw your face and my whole life changed
Your love is one of a kind
Even long after we're gone
Our love will always live on
Will you dance with me as the choir sings?
Your love is one of a kind

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
So dance with me as the choir sings

A fireside
Our favourite wine
The photographs
Of the years gone by
And I wouldn't change a second

Right here with you

Your love is one of a kind
And I'm not alone anymore
Just when I thought I was lost
I saw your face and my whole life changed
Your love is one of a kind
Even long after we're gone
Our love will always live on
Will you dance with me as the choir sings?
Your love is one of a kind

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
So dance with me as the choir sings

Look at our son now
He's wearing your smile
He's got your beautiful eyes
If only my mother could see us right now
Oh, oh, oh

Our love is one of a kind
And we're not alone anymore
Just when I thought I was lost
I saw your face and my whole life changed
Your love is one of a kind
Even long after we're gone
Our love will always live on
Will you dance with me as the choir sings?





So dance with me as the choir sings

The chorus is a declaration of the uniqueness of their love, how it is one of a kind and will continue to survive long even after they are gone. The song conveys a sense of timelessness and how the memory of their love will always live on. As they dance with each other to the choir's song, the lyrics reflect the purity and joy of happy, long-lasting love.
