One on One Lyrics

[Intro: Benjamin Ruttner]
One on one

[Verse 1: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
You're speaking to me in Portuguese
You read the book I told you to read
No, I don't mind if you're just
Another raindrop in the ocean
Some things just happen so naturally
(C'mon)

[Pre-Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
Down baby, down baby, hey
It's better when we wait
So sweet, so many ways
Gotta get what's coming next, c'mon
Down baby, down baby, hey
It's better when we wait
So sweet, so many ways
I gotta get what's coming-

[Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld, Benjamin Ruttner]
So give it up, I'm feeling just a little tempted
I need to know you, need to have you
One on one
Imagine us, I feel the rush
Yeah, I can't take it
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one (One on one)

[Post-Chorus]
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one

[Verse 2: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
You got that tenderness with a bite
Gostoso keeping me up all night
A fleeting high, a fleeting low's
Not gonna shake off this emotion
What will I whisper to you tonight?
(C'mon)

[Pre-Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
Down baby, down baby, hey
It's better when we wait
So sweet, so many ways
Gotta get what's coming next, c'mon
Down baby, down baby, hey
It's better when we wait
So sweet, so many ways
I gotta get what's coming-

[Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld, Benjamin Ruttner]
So give it up, I'm feeling just a little tempted
I need to know you, need to have you
One on one
Imagine us, I feel the rush
Yeah, I can't take it
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one (One on one)

[Post-Chorus]
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one

[Bridge: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
Joga jogo, joga comigo
Joga jogo, joga comigo
Joga jogo, joga comigo
Você está em perigo
Assim, eu consigo ter você
Um a um
Joga jogo, joga comigo
Você está em perigo
Assim, eu consigo ter você
Um a um

[Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld, Benjamin Ruttner]
So give it up, I'm feeling just a little tempted
I need to know you, need to have you
One on one
Imagine us, I feel the rush
Yeah, I can't take it
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one (One on one)

[Post-Chorus: Sophie Hawley-Weld]
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one
I'm dreaming of you cause I want you
One on one

[Outro: Benjamin Ruttner]
One on one

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
