| Ed Sheeran – ONE Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
When I first heard this song I didn't think Ed was singing about someone he knew yet. When he says, "tell me that you turned down the man who asked for your hand cause you're waiting for me," I interpreted that as him speaking to the girl that is "the one" for him. He's thinking she is probably off with the wrong guy right now turning him down because she is looking for the right one. He goes on by saying that it will be some time before they meet but he is waiting for her just like she is turning down other lovers waiting for him. When the chorus comes up Ed is talking to his future lover saying that once they are together he won't leave and he knows that she won't either because she is the only one for him. When he says "everything changes but we'll be strangers if we see this through" he is saying that if they continue on the right path towards eachother they will be strangers at first before they ultimately realize they were meant to be. This song came to me after a breakup, so that's probably why I see it this way. I like to think that Ed is singing to someone out there saying that one day they will find eachother as long as you wait and do what feels right. He knows that there is someone waiting for him. |
