One Way Road

Oasis · Other Songs - Oasis

I wanna get high, but I never could take the pain
'Cos it would blow away my soul like a hurricane
Like a one man band clapping in the pouring rain
If I know where I'm going, I don't know from where I came
Where we gonna be in summertime?
And are we gonna see the heavens shine
Like diamonds in the sky?
As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road
As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road
I wanna get high, but I really can't take the pain
'Cos it will blow away my soul like a hurricane
I'm like a one man band clapping in the pouring rain
If I know where I'm going, I don't know from where I came
Where we gonna be in summertime?
And are we gonna see the heavens shine
Like diamonds in the sky?
As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road
As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

One Way Road

Released by Oasis in 1994, 'One Way Road' stands as a defining track from the Britpop era, capturing the band's signature blend of melodic rock and introspective lyricism. The song features the distinctive guitar work of Noel Gallagher, characterized by its soaring, emotive tone that became a staple of their live performances. While often associated with the album 'Definitely Maybe,' this recording exists within their broader discography as a powerful expression of youthful rebellion and existential questioning. Its enduring popularity reflects the band's ability to craft anthems that resonate across generations, cementing Oasis's legacy as one of the most influential acts in modern British music.
