(Yeah, yeah)
Oh-oh (you only get one)
Oh-oh, yeah (you only get one)
One love, lifetime
One love, lifetime
They say when you find the one there'll be no second guessing
You'd feel it deep in your heart you'll know that it was destiny
The feelin' inside will let you know
Something that you can't deny, just let it roll
They say it's better to love than never love at all
To appreciate all the good, sometimes you gotta fall
But I was foolish
I shouldn't have let you go
But now I miss you
I gotta let you know
I need you back, back in my life
I need your kiss, kiss in my life
And it's been so long since you been gone
Baby, won't you come back home
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
And that one is you
They say that pleasure comes with pain
And I'm so used to being whole, it's hard to be half again
And you gotta feel the same way
My tears are steady falling like the pouring rain
Tell me will the forecast change (one, one)
If you love somebody, gotta let 'em know
Tomorrow's never promised, you gotta let it show
If you love somebody, you gotta let 'em know
Tomorrow's never promised, you gotta let it show
I need you back, back in my life
I need your, kiss kiss in my life
And it's been so long since you been gone
Baby, won't you come back home
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
Is you
I would climb the highest mountain
Swim the deepest oceans for you, you, you ('cause you are the one)
I would walk across the desert just to get the message to you, you, you
('Cause you are the one)
There ain't a thing in this world that I wouldn't do
Right hand to the man
Boy, I'm tellin' the truth
So all my ladies if you feel me
Then put your hands up for that one
For that one
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (you only get)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes (yeah-yeah)
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye (and now I know, I know, oh I)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (one in a lifetime)
(That one) ooh
That one
That one (one, one)
That one (say)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (ooh, I)
And I can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real, it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (one in a lifetime)
(Ooh-whoa)
Oh-oh (you only get one)
Oh-oh, yeah (you only get one)
One love, lifetime
One love, lifetime
They say when you find the one there'll be no second guessing
You'd feel it deep in your heart you'll know that it was destiny

Gentle Hour

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
No Surprises

Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
