1 Thing Lyrics

[Intro]
Woo!
Uh
Woo!
Na-na-na-na-na, oh (Uh, uh)
Na-na-na-na-na, oh (Uh, uh)
Na-na-na-na-na, oh (Uh, uh)
Na-na-na-na-na

[Verse 1]
Oh, been trying to let it go
Trying to keep my eyes closed
Trying to keep it just like before
The times we never even thought to speak
Don't wanna tell you what it is
Ooh-wee, it felt so serious
Got me thinking just too much
I wanna set it off, but

[Chorus]
It's this one thing that got me trippin'
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (You did)
This one thing, your soul made me feelin'
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's this one thing that caught me slippin'
It's this one thing, I want to admit it (You did)
This one thing and I was so with it
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Hey, we don't know each other well
So why I keep picking up my cell?
Memories just keep ringing bells
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hear voices I don't want to understand
My car keys are jingling in my hand
My high heels are clicking towards your door
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (Ooh)
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (You did)
This one thing, your soul made me feelin' (Yeah)
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's this one thing that caught me slippin' (Oh-oh)
It's this one thing, I want to admit it (You did) (Oh, oh)
This one thing and I was so with it (Yeah)
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
And maybe I just can't believe it
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I can't deny, tired of trying
Nothing left to do but to keep on seeing you
I'm hoping you can keep a secret
For me, for me, for me
But what you did, yeah

[Chorus]
It's this one thing that got me trippin'
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (You did) (Oh, no)
This one thing, your soul made me feelin' (Oh)
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's this one thing that caught me slippin' (Caught me slippin')
It's this one thing, I want to admit it (You did) (No)
This one thing and I was so with it (Hey)
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Refrain]
Oh, oh, oh (I can't help it, it's just something)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh (It's just, I don't know)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh (This thing)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh (I don't wanna fight it)
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Na-na-na-na-na, oh
Oh, na-na-na-na-na, oh
Na-na-na-na-na, oh
Na-na-na-na-na, oh (Oh-ooh)
Na-na-na-na-na (Don't know what it is, hey)

[Chorus]
It's this one thing that got me trippin'
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (You did)
This one thing, your soul made me feelin'
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's this one thing that caught me slippin' (Oh)
It's this one thing, I want to admit it (You did)
This one thing and I was so with it (Hey, hey)
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (This just one thing you did)
It's this one thing that got me trippin' (You did) (Hey, no)
This one thing, your soul made me feelin'
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Uh, oh, oh, oh)
It's this one thing that caught me slippin'
It's this one thing, I want to admit it (You did)
This one thing and I was so with it
It's this one thing you did, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
