One And One
Wa Wa Nee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Chorus]
I could make you love me
I could make you want me
I could make you love me
I could make you happy
I could make you love me
I'll make you love me
When the moon is your silent partner
To the night of a friendly crime
The star light can bring desire
In the darkness I'll make you mine

[Chorus]

When the sky is a burning bubble
And the beating of my heart is high
You can feel all the air, electric
Cause your heart and your soul are iron

I could make you love me
Yeah,
When the world moves us all in motion
And the twilight has time to cry
I will see through your commotion
I can tell you the reason why
That's right

I could make you love me
I could make you love me
I could, I could, I could, I could, I could





I could make you love me [Repeat: x2]

Brings back so my childhood memories. This is song is truly amazing and displays so much talent. Such a shame it never got the recognition it deserves.

@kingperalta

Wa Wa Nee's first album must be my favorite album from the '80s. Even if it was highly successful at the time, it's a shame it's so overlooked nowadays. Especially this track, it's SUCH a tremendous album opener and the extended version is just NUTS. The perfect blend of pop, funk and rock.

@its4it

This is my favorite Wa Wa Nee song. RIP Paul Gray.
