Lyrics

Alright, let’s go
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl(one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl(one less lonely girl)
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl(one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl

How many I told you’s and start overs
And shoulders have you cried on before?
How many promises be honest girl?
How many tears you let hit the floor?

How many bags you packed
Just to take ’em back tell me that
How many either or’s (but no more)
If you let me inside of your world
There’d be the one less lonely girl

Saw so many pretty faces (before I saw you you)
Now all I see is you
I’m coming for you (I’m coming for you)
No no
Don’t need these other pretty faces like I need you
And when you’re mine in the world

There’s gonna be one less lonely girl(I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
I’m gonna put you first (I’m coming for you)
I’ll show you what you’re worth (that’s what I’m gonna do)
If you let me inside your world
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl

Christmas wasn’t merry 14th of February
Not one of them spent with you
How many dinner dates set dinner plates and
He didn’t even touch his food
How many torn photographs are you taping back
Tell me that couldn’t see an open door
But no more
If you let me inside of your world
There’ll be one less lonely girl

Saw so many pretty faces
(Before I saw you you)
Now all I see is you
I’m coming for you I’m coming for you
No no
Don’t need these other pretty faces like I need you
And when your mine in this world

There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
I’m gonna put you first (I’m coming for you)
I’ll show you what you’re worth (that’s what I’m gonna do)
If you let me inside of your world
There’s gonna be on less lonely girl

I can fix up your broken heart (heart)
I can give you a brand new start (start)
I can make you believe (yeah)
I just wanna set one girl free to fall,
Free to fall (she’s free to fall)
Fall in love
With me

Her hearts locked and nowhere to get the key
I’ll take her and leave the world with one less lonely girl

There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl
There’s gonna be one less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)

I’m gonna put you first (I’m coming for you)
I’ll show you what you’re worth (that’s what I’m gonna do)
If you let me inside your world
There’s gonna be on less lonely girl (I’m coming for you)
One less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)
One less lonely girl (one less lonely girl)

I’m gonna put you first (I’m coming for you)
I’ll show you what you’re worth (that’s what I’m gonna do)
If you let me inside your world
There’s gonna be on less lonely girl

You shawty

With the pop sensation’s hit ‘One Less Lonely Girl,’ Justin Bieber offers a poignant exploration of love and loneliness. This early Bieber anthem, emblematic of his crooning style, is more than just teenage love—it’s an expression of young Bieber’s then-burgeoning understanding of the gaps and scars that only companionship can heal.

Beyond the catchy hooks and heartthrob reputation, ‘One Less Lonely Girl’ reveals layers of emotional resonance that dig into the universal search for connection. As we dissect the lyrics, we find not only a narrative of adolescent romance but a commentary on the world’s collective yearning for a place and a person to call home.

Teen Heartthrob or Poet of Loss? The Dual Sides of Bieber’s Narrative

At first glance, ‘One Less Lonely Girl’ may seem like a typical teenage romantic promise. However, the repetitive assurance that there’s ‘gonna be one less lonely girl’ echoes a deeper longing for belonging. Bieber positions himself as the cure to loneliness, not simply in a romantic capacity, but as an allegory for misunderstood youth.

The verses convey a sense of empathy towards the girl’s past disappointments – the broken promises and wasted dinner dates. The persistence in Bieber’s tone paints a picture of a relentless hope, reflecting a maturity that is often overlooked due to his then-youthful image.

Underneath the Surface: The Song’s Hidden Call for Genuine Connection

Delving into the chorus, one finds the crux of ‘One Less Lonely Girl’ is not just to eliminate loneliness but to prioritize authentic connections over superficial encounters. It’s a call to recognize and uplift the worth of one’s significant other, to look beyond pretty faces and to promise someone that they would not only be seen but valued.

Through his reassuring words, Bieber indicates a shift in priorities. This isn’t about fleeting attraction but about dedication and the promise to put someone else first— a subtle nod to the transformative power of selfless love.

Navigating Heartbreak: The Role of Resilience In Bieber’s Ode

Bieber’s lyrics don’t shy away from acknowledging the various tribulations of his ‘Lonely Girl.’ The visual imagery of ‘torn photographs’ and ‘dinner plates’ that go untouched speaks to the aftermath of heartache. Yet, the song’s essence lies in its hope for recovery — the belief in second chances and new starts.

The commitment to ‘fix up your broken heart’ and ‘make you believe’ underscores the potential for growth that stemmed from being seen and cared for. In this way, Bieber is not only promising companionship but also heralding the possibility of healing through love.

Memorable Lines: The Anthem’s Core Takeaways

‘If you let me inside of your world, there’d be one less lonely girl.’ With these lyrics, Bieber captures his desire to be someone’s pivotal turning point. The emphasis is on mutual consent (‘If you let me…’) and the readiness to be part of someone else’s inner sanctum, fostering a sense of mutual trust and understanding.

‘I’m coming for you’ – Repeated like a mantra throughout the song, this line is not only a promise of arrival but an announcement of intent. It’s a guarantee of persistence and a hint at the determination of young love to overcome obstacles in the pursuit of unifying two solitary worlds.

The Transition of Desire: From Individual Yearning to Collaborative Healing

Ultimately, ‘One Less Lonely Girl’ takes us from the individual desire – the personal want to find connection – to something more collective: the healing that comes with love. It’s not just about the ‘Lonely Girl’ herself but also about what happens when two souls come together to address the ache of isolation.

‘I just wanna set one girl free to fall, free to fall (she’s free to fall) / Fall in love / With me’ — This verse exemplifies the notion of emotional emancipation through companionship. To be ‘free to fall’ indicates a release from the constraints of past hurts and the freedom to embrace a love that’s both nurturing and redemptive.
