One Thing
Thomas Anders Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My hands at the wheel, my eyes of the seeing your fame
My heart is excited, I'm back with the someone got a nay
A star of the pilgrim, I swear, looks me right in the eye
It's talking to me now, I'm sure, as I'm passing by
I wanna be in America
Where the desert meets the skies
I wanna be in America
Where's the love and oceans, love and oceans

Chorus:
One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I'm turning on the love failed you
Love can be so exciting
One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I'm turning on the love failed you
My house on the hill and a car full of plastic and chrome
The radio's passing, I feel like I finally go home
I drive through the canyon where is the air that I breathe
It's cold here in heaven but hell - it don't matter to me
I wanna stay in America
Where the desert meets the skies
I wanna be in America
Where's the love and oceans, love and oceans

Chorus:
Only I wanna
Only wanna be with
Only I wanna




Only wanna be with you
I wanna be with you

My hands at the wheel,
My eyes on the city of fame
My heart is excited,
I'm back where the sun got its name
A star on the billboard,
I swear, looks me right in the eye
It's talkin' to me now,
I'm sure, as I pass it by

I wanna be in America
Where the desert meets the skies
I wanna buy up America
With its love and oceans, love and oceans

One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you
Love can be so exciting
One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you

A house on the hill and
A car full of plastic and chrome
The radio's blastin',
I feel like I've finally come home
I drive through the canyon
Aware of the air that I breath
It's hot here in heaven
But hell, it don't matter to me

I wanna stay in America
Where the desert meets the skies
I wanna buy up America
With its love and oceans, love and oceans

One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you
Love can be so exciting
One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you

Only I wanna
Only wanna be with
Only I wanna
Only wanna be with you
I wanna be with you

One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you
Love can be so exciting
One thing - I always wanted something new
One thing - I turned around and I found you
