This Is the One
The Stone Roses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We all know her desire
From the plans that she has made
I had her on a promise
Immerse me in your splendour
All the plans that I have made
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
She's waited for
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
Oh this is the one
This is the one
She's waited for
I'd like to leave the country
For a month of Sundays
Burn the town where I was born
If only she'd believe me
Bellona belladonna
Burn me out or bring me home
And this is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
She's waited for
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
Oh this is the one
This is the one
I've waited for
Oh this is the one
Oh this is the one
This is the one
I've waited for
This is the one
Oh this is the one
Oh this is the one
This is the one
I've waited for
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
Oh this is the one
This is the one
I've waited for
It may go right
It may go wrong
This is the one
This is the one
She's waited for
And this is the one
This is the one
This is the one
This is the one
She's waited for
And this is the one
Oh this is the one
Ah this is the one
This is the one
I've waited for
The Stone Roses’ song “This Is the One” features lyrics that are filled with mysterious imagery and gnomic phrases. The lyrics are open to interpretation, but they seem to be about a woman who’s “consumed by fire.” While the lyrics aren’t explicit about what this means, it suggests a woman who is passionate or even out of control. The singer is drawn to her, even though he knows she’s dangerous. He says that he wants to be “immersed” in her “splendour.” The lyrics also suggest a longing for drama and excitement. The singer declares that “this is the one” that he’s been waiting for, but it’s not entirely clear what he’s referring to.
The song has a haunting quality, with a slow, dreamy build up that creates an atmosphere of anticipation. The lyrics echo this feeling of longing and mystery, with a repeated refrain of “this is the one” that seems to suggest that something important is about to happen. The singer’s voice is plaintive and almost desperate, adding to the sense of urgency in the song.
