[Verse 1]

Always chasing after something
Why do I feel like I’m running
Searching all the world for one thing

Why do I feel like I’m running
Always chasing after something
Why do I feel like I’m running
Searching all the world for one thing
Wandering, wandering, giving all I’ve got for one thing
Wandering, wandering, searching all the world for one thing
[Pre-Chorus]
Searching all the world
Searching all the world
Searching all the…
Searching all the…
Searching, search, search, search....
Searching all the world for one thing
[Chorus]
Searching all the world for one thing
Giving all I’ve got for one thing
Searching all the world for one thing
Giving all I’ve got for one thing
One Thing was written by San Holo & Cara Salimando.
One Thing was produced by San Holo.
San Holo has said that sometimes it can feel like you’re constantly searching for something, and that when you get that thing, you’re searching for another thing and that it can feel like a neverending battle. That is the feeling he tried to portray with “One Thing.”
