[Intro]
What, where am I?
[Verse 1]
What's life like on a train?
Nobody there knows your name
As your decision changed
Do you wish that I came?
I thought you'd pick me up from work
I waited for your truck for half hour
I know you said you were gonna
But I never thought you'd leave
[Chorus]
This one thing that was made for us
Chasing us, saving us
I take one thing over everything
I take that thing over anybody, oh
[Verse 2]
Square face and puppy eyes
Found out they never lied
Your old man lived in the sky
Left your house with a yard
But you went away a different try
Found a place that's your size
Too good to finish life here with me
I couldn't get you to say
Why you wouldn't let me come
What should be simple just ain't
And it shouldn't hurt like it does
[Chorus]
This one thing is made for us
Won't stay with us, it ain't saving us
But I'll take one thing over everything
I'll take that thing over anybody
[Bridge]
Baby, hold me, don't pick me up
I need a compliment
Just a touch from a friend
I need a gentle word
I need your company
I'll keep
[Chorus]
One thing that was made for us
Chasing us, saving us
I take one thing over anything
I take that thing over anybody
I take one thing over everything
I take that thing over anybody
Oh, oh, anything
Oh, oh, take one thing
One Thing was written by Malay & Alicia Keys & Frank Ocean.
One Thing was produced by Malay.
Alicia Keys released One Thing on Thu Nov 22 2012.
I really love the song, because it’s this story about this relationship. It starts out on the train and by the end of the song you figure out who I got on that train. And how there’s one thing you’re searching for and what happens in that story.
