Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time

One time
One time

When I met you girl my heart went knock knock knock
Now them butterflies in my stomach won't stop stop
And even though it's a struggle love is all we got
So we gonna keep keep climbin' till the mountain top

Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart (is my heart)

You're my one love
My one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my number one girl always makin' time for you
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)

You look so deep
You know that it humbles me
You're by my side and what troubles them don't trouble me
Many have called but the chosen is you
Whatever you want shawty I'll give it to you

Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart (is my heart)

You're my one love
My one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my number one girl always makin' time for you
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)

Shawty right there
She's got everything I need and I'ma tell her one time
One time, one time
Give you everything you need down to my last dime
She makes me happy
I know where I'll be
Right by your side 'cause she is the one
For me

You're my one love
My one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my number one girl always makin' time for you
I'ma me tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time (girl I love, girl I love you)

Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time

One time
One time

    Song Meaning

    now, in these days do people really care what the lyrics are (they should) do you know how many times people reply to his youtube songs saying... he is so cute, hot, a good singer, I love him. It is good that you love him but do you love his songs, not the beat or the music videos, but the meaning of the song, if you understand the meaning of the song, not just one phase, but every world in the song then you should comment on how you love in the song he (as in Justin) is stating that he will put everything in his life to the side just for that special, number one girl!!! I am 13 and I never wrote something so touching like this before!!! :) I only went on this site to see if anyone knew what the meaning of shawty was, if it was like shorty ( as in he likes short girls), or this special girl.

    I came on this site to find the meaning of the song. All I received was a list of comments saying, "I LOVE YOU JUSTINNNN!" I do understand when you create a comment you have the option of Opinion, but seriously, this is a song meanings site.

    What does this song mean? Why is he only saying "I love you" one time? Why can't he say it more than one time? Is he embarrassed that she's his girl, so he'll only say he loves her once? Does it just go along with the motif of "one" in the other lines in the song's chorus? I've read the versus and they just contain meaningless "be my girl" "I like you" "people say we shouldn't be together" nonsense. It just doesn't make sense at all. It a another silly love song that just contains blabber.

    I also find it funny that he'll only tell her once, but repeats that he'll tell her once many times. Ha, though he's probably saying that he'll tell her once in that time frame.

    This song has no deeper meaning than Pre-Teen garbage.

    J.B sucks and can't sing.

    His voice is way to high to be fifteen! And in the video, he acts some much like a black person (not to be racist, but it's true)

    this song might be sweet if it were sung by someone who meant it. i mean, "Girl, i love you..." seriously? you're 15. if it were by a 21 year old with a deeper voice who knows what love is, it might be better, except that if someone older sang it, he wouldn't have an excuse for the song to be a bit childish. "and I'll be your one guy You'll be my number one girl" i love this line, because it literally says I'll be your one guy, and you'll be my number one girl, as in I have others, but you'll be my number one. i think thats funny, but i know it doesn't really mean that.

    My Opinion

    Biebs suks. Period. He says "tell you one time" approximately 18 times in the song. He doesn't know shit about love, and he says ayyyy too much. He also has no right to say "shawty" in a song. STFU Bieber, STFU!!!

    Strange, Has no one noticed that lyrics are incorrect. I found these lyrics, I hope it helps :)

    I was once a man before I transformed into this molester, freshly deceased children You have born, torn by my rape The dead are not safe, the lifeless child corpse I will violate

    Pleasure from the dead, complete satisfaction I open the coffin Sick thoughts run through my head as I stare At the dead, over and over, I can't escape I begin the dead sex, licking her young, rotted orifice I cum in her cold cunt, shivering with ecstasy for nine days straight I do the same She becomes by dead, decayed child sex slave her neck I hack, cutting through the back I use her mouth to eject

    Here I cum, blood gushes from bleeding black blood her head disconnected As I came, viciously I cut, through her jugular vein She's already dead, I masturbate with her severed head My lubrication, her decomposition Spending my life molesting dead children

    Intercourse with infants Curing heads on top of spikes boiling skulls Skin sliding off of bones

    Voices The voices call Voices The voices are calling me Buried dead I've spiritually infected Call to me from beyond their graves

    Bleed I now bleed pus I bleed, the blood of the dead I bleed on her livid skin Thrusting myself within Beginning to chop through her hairless crotch Beyond what we know as death It haunts me everyday I hear the voice of every child That lies next to me decayed A fresh corpse, to fill with my infection Tortured before death, no orifice left unfilled

    Violated after death Virgin hole I infest Anal pore spewing cess The sacred juice I injest Your dead child I defile Necropedophile!!!!!111!!1!!

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
