Side A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know, but I can't see you
Somebody's reading what I have in mind
Someone is here beside me
I know, cause I can feel yo
Someone is here, it's you
(It's you) Whenever I'm alone I think of you
(Just you) Whatever comes along I think of you
There was once a time
When I had all this confusions
I looked for answers
That had led me to more questions
But now my life has finally changed because of you
And now I believe it's true
(It's you) Whenever I'm alone I think of you
(Just you) When all my friends are gone I think of you
(Just you) Only you
I won't let you go
You'll always stay inside me
Love will always grow
There will never be another
I won't let you go
You'll always stay inside me
Love will always grow
There will never be another
Somebody's watching every little thing I do
Someone is here to guide me through
Someone is here to tell me what is right or wrong
Someone is here, it's you
(It's you) Whenever I'm alone I think of you
(Just you) Whatever comes along I think of you
(Just you) Only you
Only you
I never thought that I would find peace of mind
You were here all along
I never thought that I would see
Someone like you who would love me most
For what I am, for what I do
My heart will always keep on loving you
(I won't let you go, I won't let you go)
Sometimes I feel that I'm alone, far from home
But you're always here in my heart
You never left me here all alone
You're someone I know who would love me most
For what I am
The lyrics to Side A's song Only One touch on themes of love, companionship, and guidance. The song talks about how the singer feels like there's always someone watching over them, someone they can't see but can feel, and that someone is the person they love. The song gives the impression that the singer has been lost and confused before they met this person, but now things have changed for the better. They want to hold on to this person and never let go, as their love will always grow.
The song starts with the singer sensing that somebody is watching and reading everything they do and think, but they cannot see this person. This is followed by them feeling the presence of someone beside them, someone they can feel, and that someone is the person they love. When they are alone, they think of this person, and even when their friends are gone, this person is still on their mind. They are certain that they won't let this person go and that they will always stay inside them.
The lyrics then talk about how this person guides them and tells them what is right and wrong. The person has given the singer peace of mind and has loved them for who they are. Even when the singer is far from home, they feel like this person is always with them in their heart.

Someone like you, who would love me above all else
For what I am, for what I do
You love me for who I am and what I do
My heart will always keep on loving you
I will always love you from the bottom of my heart
(I won't let you go, I won't let you go)
I will never let go of you
Sometimes I feel that I'm alone, far from home
At times, I feel like I am isolated and far from where I belong
But you're always here in my heart
You are always in my heart, even when we are apart
You never left me here all alone
You never abandoned me when I needed you
You're someone I know who would love me most
You are the one who loves me the most and always will
For what I am
You love me for who I am
