We Are One
Westlife Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stay where you are
Don't let me go, don't let me go
We made it this far
Oh baby stop, stop right there
Don't walk away, don't walk away
Into thin air
We survived a crash
Made it through the wreckage
Standing here at last
So perfectly written

Now where we are
Is where we're suppose to be
Where we are
Keeps the breath in me
Where we've been
We've risen from the deep
Where we're now no one can tear us apart
That's where we are

Don't, don't turn around
We gotta let, we got to let
Go of the past now
Feel me by your side
We're out of danger
No reason to hide
We survived the storm
Made it through the hurricane
Standing here at last
Dry despite the rain

Now where we are
Is where we're suppose to be
Where we are
Keeps the breath in me
Where we've been
We've risen from the deep
Where we're now no one can tear us apart
That's where we are

That's where we are
Stay, stay where you are

Now where we are
Is where we're suppose to be
Where we are
Keeps the breath in me
Where we've been
We've risen from the deep
Where we're now no one can tear us apart
That's where we are





That's where we are

Two very different people
Too scared to get along
Till two hearts beat together
Underneath one sun
One very special moment
Can turn a destiny
And what some would say
Could never change
Has changed for you and me

'Cause it's all, it's all in the way you
Look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

We are two very different people
So much to overcome
So why care for one another
When there's so much to be done

'Cause sometimes it´s necessary 
Just look how far we´ve come
You could say my friend that
It's the end
Or a new tale has begun

'Cause it's all, it's all in the way you
Look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

One moment in time
Is all the time we need
Just to make a difference
To make it better for you and for me
It you just believe

Oh yeah
Just open your eyes

'Cause it's all, it's all in the way you
Look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

Oh yeah, oh yeah
We were two
Now we are one

[Verse 1]
Two very different people too scared to get along
'Til two hearts beat together underneath one sun
One very special moment can turn a destiny
And what some would say could never change
Has changed for you and me

[Chorus]
'Cause it's all
It's all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies
Are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it that makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

[Verse 2]
We are two very different people
So much to overcome
So why care for one another
When there's so much to be done?
Cause sometimes it's necessary
Just look how far we've come
You could say my friend that it's the end
Or a new tale has begun


[Chorus]
'Cause it's all
It's all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies
Are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it that makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one

[Bridge]
One moment in time is all the time we need
Just to make a difference
To make it better for you and for me
If you just believe
Oh yeah, just open your eyes

[Chorus]
'Cause it's all
It's all in the way you look through your eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies
Are not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it that makes you strong
We were two (we were two)
Now we are one


[Outro]
Oh yeah, oh yeah
We were two, now we are one

@Nguyễn Đại can't say , Westlife have been prohibited in the USA while BSB was worldwide. It's more than obvious that USA was afraid of Westlife being beyond BSB
