Tracy Chapman: Give Me One Reason Meaning
Song Released: 1995
Give Me One Reason Lyrics
-
The song is a classic twelve-bar blues, both in musical structure and the repeated lyrics in each verse and chorus. It is the story of an ending relationship, and a plea from the narrator to her partner for the partner to convince her to remain, to "give me one reason to stay here, and I'll turn right back around." At the end of the song, the partner is apparently given voice for the last line, "said I told you that I loved you, and there ain't no more to say."

After a spat, OR one feels taken for granted. The linear minded male is content, girl comes over, calls, keeps it great. Life is good. She decides to ask what are we doing here? She sees herself giving, there is the taking, and what does she get? She doesn't want to lose the guy, but thinks maybe she should move on.

A plea for love ,a fling ,a reconcilation after a couple's fight or with an ex. Hence the lyrics about exchanging phone numbers;"Baby I've got your number (oh) and I know that you've mine;you can call me baby,you can me anytime,you've got to call me."
