The One Lyrics

Tell me, tell me that you want me
And I’ll be yours completely, for better or for worse
I know, we'll have our disagreements
Be fighting for no reason, I wouldn't change it for the world
'Cause I knew, the first day that I met you
I was never gonna let you, let you slip away
And I still remember feeling nervous
Trying to find the words to get you here today

You make my heart feel like it's summer
When the rain is pouring down
You make my whole world feel so right when it’s wrong
That’s how I know that you are The One
That’s why I know you are the one

Life is easy to be scared of
With you I am prepared for what is yet to come
'Cause our two hearts will make it easy
Joining up the pieces, together making one

You make my heart feel like its summer
When the rain is pouring down
You make my whole world feel so right when it’s wrong
That’s how I know you are the one
That’s why I know you are the one

When we are together you make me feel like my mind is free
And my dreams are reachable
You know I never ever believed in love or believed one day
That you would come along

Free me
You make my heart feel like its summer
When the rain is pouring down
You make my whole world feel so right when its wrong
That’s how I know you are the one
That’s why I know you are the one
That’s why I know you are the one
That’s how I know you are the one

The One Song Chart

This anthemic tune was written the night before Kodaline engineer Phil Magee's wedding, and performed for the first time at the ceremony. "There were only 100 people there but it was scarier than playing Glastonbury," vocalist Stephen Garrigan told Q magazine.

Garrigan wrote the song for the happy couple as a last minute wedding present. "Like an idiot, I left writing it until the night before," he recalled.

Other songs originally written as wedding presents, which became successful releases in their own right include "The Day Before You" by Rascal Flatts and "Love Song" by The Cure.

Kodaline hadn't planned to record this for their Coming Up For Air album. During a gig in Toronto, a fan proposed to his fiancée onstage. She said yes, so Kodaline played Phil Magee's wedding song to mark the occasion. Some fans at that Toronto concert recorded their own version of the song and put it up on YouTube. Kodaline were so pleased with it, they decided to record the tune. Garrigan told Radio.com : "It's weird that it took somebody covering our own song to actually make us think about recording it and putting it on the album. That was definitely a first."
