One es una canción de la banda irlandesa U2 que forma parte de su álbum de 1991 que llevó por título Achtung Baby y está considerada por la revista Rolling Stone como una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos.
Según palabras del propio Bono, líder de la banda, el tema resume una visión escéptica sobre la ilusión de la unidad y la hermandad en el mundo, pero posteriormente, con el paso de los años, la banda la utiliza con un mensaje más positivo promocionando actos sobre los Derechos Humanos y reafirmando la posibilidad de una unidad entre pueblos y naciones.
La canción ha tenido diversas versiones, como la que el propio Bono realiza junto a la cantante estadounidense Mary J. Blige, o la que hace con Damien Rice.
En 2001 el cantante estadounidense Johnny Cash hace una versión para su álbum American III: Solitary Man.
Is it getting better?
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You 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
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
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!
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!
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
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much? More than a lot
You gave me nothin' now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other then we do it again
You gave me nothin' now it's all I got
We're one but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other then we do it again
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holdin' on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holdin' on to what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love, one blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life, you got to do what you should
One life, with each other
Sisters, brothers
One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
One
