One to the Two
[Translated]
One to the Two you know I love you
Three to the Four just give me some more
Five to the Six, I fall into your bright smile,
Seven to the Eight, into your eyes
Nine to the Ten, I'm captured by your long hair
I saw you by chance after waiting day by day
The beautiful you I long for in my dream
I couldn't prepare anything to say to you
I waited for you absent-mindedly
Will you greet me? Will you notice me?
Will you even remember me?
My worries get ahead of me
I can't even say anything in front of you
And I stand in your way
One to the Two, Three to the Four
Five to the Six, Seven to the Eight
Nine to the Ten
Maybe I'm just waiting for you to notice me first
I can't raise my head once
And you pass me and walk by
This is not supposed to be
Because of my hurried heart, to you, just listen!
How are you? I missed you
I can't say this and turn my head the other way
You see me like that and stand there, happy to see me and laughing
Without knowing, I just fall in
I pray to myself that you would not
Just greet me like that and walk away
I can't do anything but send you and endure
Because you don't know my heart that wants you to stay
I can't do anything but wait again
I see you again over there
At the footsteps getting closer, my heart slowly twists
I tell it not to shake but it burns
You don't know how embarrassing it is
Even though I try to say something cool
Again, you pass me and make me feel uncomfortable
Absent-minded, I turn my head
And of course, you're stare at me and laugh
*Repeat
Se7en's song "One to Ten" is a love song about a man's crush on a woman. The numbers in the lyrics represent the different stages of his infatuation, with "One to the Two" representing his love for her, "Three to the Four" representing his desire for more of her attention, and "Five to the Six" representing his captivation by her smile. The lyrics express both his admiration for her beauty and his frustration with his inability to express his feelings to her.
Throughout the song, he is torn between wanting to speak up and fearing rejection, and is left waiting and hoping for her to notice him. His nervousness is palpable in lines like "My worries get ahead of me/I can't even say anything in front of you/And I stand in your way." However, the chorus's repetition of the numbers suggests that his infatuation is cyclical, and he will continue to love her despite his struggles.
Overall, "One to Ten" is a poignant and relatable depiction of the challenges of unrequited love, as well as a showcase of Se7en's smooth and emotive vocals.
