One By One Lyrics

I remember wasting time
Watching as the planes fly by
I remember hearing the engines
Echoing through the sky

And they used to say
That someday you'll forget it
You won't hear them
And they used to say
That time goes by
But nothing changes

I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one, I'll prove you wrong
One by one, I'll prove you wrong

I remember every night
Sitting by the runway side
I remember waiting for
A reason to say goodbye

And they used to say
That someday you'll forget it
You won't hear them
And they used to say
The day goes by
But you can't change it

I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one, I'll prove you wrong
One by one, I'll prove you wrong

Sometimes I think I've been wrong
But this is the place I think belong
And every time I speak my mind
I'm leaving you behind

And I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one, I'll prove you wrong

I won't miss my flight again
I'm not where I belong
So give me just one chance
And one by one, I'll prove you wrong
One by one, I'll prove you wrong
One by one, I'll prove you wrong
One by one, I'll prove you wrong
And one by one, I'll prove you wrong

I LOVE this song!! I heard about it, but couldn't find it online, and finally I got a special Simple Plan sampler and it's on there. It's really good and I hope next time I see them they will play it, because the two shows I have been to so far they haven't! Great song though, and AMAZING band! xxkate

Wow this song sounds really cool, I'll have to try to find it online somewhere! I especially like the "So give me just one chance, and / one by one I'll prove you wrong / one by one I'll prove you wrong / " part. It's like a lyrical version of a :P heehee

Sounds like it's about someone who missed their opportunity "knock" and is hoping for another chance because they now how the confidence to go through with it.

this songs sounds as if its about someone wanting another chance to prove people wrong..to prove something...that they can make it in the world. Joey x

Cover art for One By One lyrics by Simple Plan

I'm pretty clear that this song is about not losing your childhood dreams (the part about "and they used to say that someday you'll forget it, you won't hear them": Not hearing things you used to is growing up and losing your dreams), and taking the opportunity (apparently once missed) to go and realize those dreams. In SP's case, it is probably about having a musical career rather than a humdrum existence, against the wishes of parents and other authority figures.
