Justin Bieber – One Time lyrics
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
One time, one time


When I met you girl my heart went knock knock
Now them butterflies in my stomach won't stop stop
And even though it's a struggle love is all we got
And we gon' keep keep climbing to the mountain top

Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart

And girl you're my one love, my one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my #1 girl
Always making time for you
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

You look so deep, you know that it humbles me
You're by my side, them troubles them not trouble me
Many have called but the chosen is you
Whatever you want shawty I'll give it to you

Your world is my world
And my fight is your fight
My breath is your breath
And your heart

And girl you're my one love, my one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my #1 girl
Always making time for you
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

Shawty right there
She's got everything I need
And I'ma tell her one time
Give you everything you need down to my last dime

She makes me happy
I know where I'll be
Right by your side
'Cause she is the one

And girl you're my one love, my one heart
My one life for sure
Let me tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

And I'ma be your one guy
You'll be my #1 girl
Always making time for you
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)
I'ma tell you one time
(Girl, I love, girl I love you)

Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
Me plus you, I'ma tell you one time
One time, one time

    This is song was the first song I had ever heard by Justin Bieber. I love it so much and it's very special to me. Although I am Justin's biggest fan now, I did think he sounded much like a girl long ago. I really regret thinking that. His voice has matured so much now! Justin, if you're reading this, don't get offened by people who think you sound like A girl! You just keep writing that fantastic music or yours;) I am your #1 fan and I love you! You are also really cute. I hope I will be able to meet you in real life someday.

    Lolz, if people can say what they want, jacinta, then ima say what I want too. I'm tryin to keep people from giving out their addresses and crap so they don't have a pedofile stock them or what-not. So, yeah. Justin isn't gonna write you back, and he isn't gonna show up at ur house or watev you asked him, cuz these are comments on songs, not messages to him. Better? I tried to dwindle it down for you, so do you understand now? Good. ^^

    I rekkon hes hot as you can get and 4 such a yung artist he is really good at controlling his voice. I'm 3 years yunger than him but listening 2 his songs just, idunno means something 2 me. All of his songs mean something to him and you can hear that when you listen to the lyrics. Not only does it mean something to him but we all can relate to this guy, girls half of us in the world are lonely at the moment and guys can make us 1 less lonely girl can't they. Wether its justin bieber or not. I'm going to use one more example, one time is about when a guy tells a girl he loves her for the first real time most girls want their 1st kiss to be special don't they.
    All of Justins songs can be related to and they have appropreate meaning unlike britney spears songs if you seek amy or 3
    Justin Bieber Sets A Good Exampe For all yung artists and he would inspire them to go out and try to get a record lable because he shows that you can get a record able at almost any age.
    And most of all hes a talented good looking artist:):)

    I was just looking up crappy songs with no lyrical meaning for an essay I'm doing for one of my college classes. Seriously, this song sucks as does justine bieber. As far as the other comments on here go it's called capitalisation and punctuation. Misspelling words doesn't make you look cute and numbers are spelt out. Go listen to some real music and save your ears from future harm.
    And while I'm at it stay away from twilight! Though it has nothing to do with this sad excuse for music it can't be stressed enough. It's a pile of literary crap and those are not vampires at all. Vampires burn in the sun not sparkle. Those are not vampires, they are faeries. Stay in school kids. Stay in school.

    Yep hotstuff21 is soo rite I'm not really a fan of him but I like the songs he makes and seriously all dem gurls out there tht keep goin "OMG HE SOOO HOT WATCH IM GOIN TO GO OUT WITH HIM ONE DAY" and trust me all dem gurls tht say tht are like 10 years old and hes like 15, 16 sumthin like tht and n e way he g**. So all you gurls out there tht in love with him keep dreamin cuz you never will happen. But then once you grow older and you honestly know wht love is nd not just having gfs and bfs and saying I love you. You actually have to mean it. Not jus cuz ur mother or father sed yes.

    This song is so dumb. What ever happened to the Jonas brother and Twilight worshipping crowds? Get over yourselves. He just wants money and could less of a sh! T about you all. Trust me. My dad is a lead singer in a band and that's how he said it goes. But, my dad loves his fans and hates the money aspect of the job. So, pre-teen girls, grow up!

    I love this song and I would like to dedicate to any one who loves there girls as much as he does. I did have one that meant the world to me but then after 5 months of us dating he broke my heart in 2 pieces so now I don't know if I can love anyone as much as I loved him. I might if I find me a guy like I did but I hardly doubt it. I might and then again I might not. Who knows I don't that's for sure.

    I don't even know why I am writing this, because its not like you're actually going to read this. You have already achieved your goals or at least you're half-way there. On the other hand, I am still a pretty long way from mine. I am not even going to hope to meet you one day because I am just going to end up disappointing myself. One more thing, you have a really good voice (like you don't know that already). :)

    This song, and pretty much anything by Justin Beiber makes me very, very sad. It makes me sad that this is what the music industry has come to: commercialized pop that's all about love, written by a kid who doesn't even know what love is. What happened to the old days when it was about how good the music was, not how hot the singer is or how heavy the guitar riffs are or how catchy the music is? Music has turned into a way to sell people, not selling honest-to-goodness great music written from the heart.

    I'm not a fan of justin but my Fiancée's sister was with him and turned this song on and ever since then its been our song :) so there fore I love this song! Love you Alex can't wait till May 25! Coming up so fast I'm so nervous lol well you gurls out there who are saying that justin will be your husband he doesn't need a gurl all he is wanting is the money he is making and he is fine. Just saying but when you get older you will understand what love is and you will understand he is like a lil boy at least that's what he sounds like lol.

    Omg, people! Justin isn't gonna write back to you! Jesus, ur commenting on his songs, not writing him a message. None of these go to him! Gah, quit giving out ur #'s and addresses and stuff, cuz they don't go to him! Someone else can read them, damn! Jesus, those that think justin will write them back or watev are dumbasses! Gah, this are comments you retards! Find a less complicated sight for dumbasses like yall, like wizard101 or watever, jesus! I get tired of retards. >=(

    And the award for the Worst Male Artist/Band goes to. Justin Bieber. Sorry, nice try but a huge no. This song seriously made me a Jonas Brothers fan. Reasons I hate this song/artist:
    1. The lyrics. Lines like "my fight is your fight" make him sound so self-absorbed and wanting to dump all his problems on her. Plus "she makes me happy" sounds childish and not fitting for a teen.
    2. No vocal talent! Do I need to say anything else on that?
    3. He is not physically cute or good looking. Idk about you, but sometimes that's a huge thing for me. But not as important as talent.
    Nice try, but no, you do not have the talent or skill to survive in the business.
    And I am entitled to my opinions. I am allowed to love what I love and hate what I hate.
