Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, baby, baby
Oh, baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here
Oh, baby, baby, I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now what we've got
My loneliness is killin' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
Oh, baby, baby, the reason I breathe is you
Boy, you've got me blinded
Oh, pretty baby, there's nothin' that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now what we've got
My loneliness is killing' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
Oh eh
Eh yeah
Oh, baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
Oh, pretty baby, I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here and give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
My loneliness is killin' me
(And I)
I must confess I still believe
(Still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
(I must confess)
My loneliness is killin' me
(That my loneliness is killing me now)
I must confess I still believe
(Don't you know I still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
(That you will be here)
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
The lyrics to The Hit Crew's song One More Time are reflective of a young woman who is reminiscing on a past relationship that was once filled with love and passion. Amidst the euphoria of being with her lover, the woman senses that something is wrong, yet she is unable to put her finger on it. Before she can figure it out, her lover has left her, and she is left struggling to come to terms with the sudden break up.
Throughout the song, the lyrics reveal the woman's inner turmoil as she grapples to understand what went wrong in her relationship. Her loneliness gnaws at her, and she is desperate for her lover to come back to her. Deep down, she admits that she still believes in their love and is willing to do anything to get her lover back, even if it means begging for his love "one more time".
The lyrics to the song are a powerful expression of the heartbreak and pain experienced by those who have been left behind by their lover. The desperate plea for love and affection from a person once loved is a universally relatable experience.
