One for Sorrow Lyrics

[Verse 1: Claire with Faye]
I wanted your love but look what it's done to me
All my dreams have come to nothing
Who would have believed
All the laughter that we shared would be a memory?
I cannot count the tears you've cost me
If I could have seen

[Pre-Chorus: Claire]
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?

[Chorus: All, Claire]
Oh, I know you're somewhere else right now
Loving someone else, no doubt
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cause you're taking my love where you are
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad 'bout us?

[Verse 2: Claire with Faye]
I wanted your love but I got uncertainty
I tried so hard to understand you
All the good it did me
Now the places that we knew remind me of how we were
Everything is just the same
But all I feel is hurt
[Pre-Chorus: Claire]
And do you ever think of me
And how we used to be?

[Chorus: All, Claire]
Oh, I know you're somewhere else right now
Loving someone else, no doubt
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cause you're taking my love where you are
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad 'bout us?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Claire]
Oh, I know you're somewhere else right now
Loving someone else, no doubt
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cause you're taking my love where you are
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad 'bout us?
[Chorus: All]
I know you're somewhere else right now
Loving someone else no doubt
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad?
Are you breaking someone else's heart?
'Cause you're taking my love where you are
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad 'bout us?
(Know you're somewhere else right now)
Loving someone else, no doubt
Well, I'm one for sorrow
Ain't it too, too bad 'bout us?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Unlike Steps' previous single, “Last Thing on My Mind”, which featured solo vocals by all three girls, Claire performs lead vocals of all of the verses, which are harmonised with Faye, before the entire band join for the chorus.
