One

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You've got someone to blame.

You say, one love, one life
When it's one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you, baby, if you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without.

Well, it's too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One, one.

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head?

Oh well, did I ask too much? More than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to hurt each other, now we do it again
You say.

Love is a temple, love is a higher law
Love is a temple, love is the higher law
You ask for me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't keep holding on
When what you got, when all you got is hurt.

One love
(One love)
One blood
(One blood)
One life, you got to do what you should.

One night
(One night)
With each other
(Each other).

Sisters
(Sisters)
And my brothers.

One life, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One, one, one, one.
