Lyrics
One by One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, dear daddy"
When you pray with every breath
You know, that is free as the love you have
Where does it end?
It's too much for me to take
There's no peace, you close your eyes
I'm all out of truth, I'm out of alibis
Where does it end?
It's too much for me to take
We're gonna love one another till morning comes
Seek the sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one
One by one
He gives a new kind of meaning to what I am
I know that I could never love any other man
One of these days you'll understand
Understand
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, daddy"
"Oh no", she said, "Dear daddy, dear daddy"
And his face his heaven sent
He makes me believe there must be something else
Where does it end?
It's too much for me to take
I can feel the need in you
There isn't a thing I won't let you do
Where does it end?
It's too much for me to take
We're gonna love one another till morning comes
Seek the sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one
One by one
He gives a new kind of meaning to what I am
I know that I could never love any other man
One of these days you'll understand
Understand, understand
We're gonna love one another till morning comes
Seek the sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one
One by one
He gives a new kind of meaning to what I am
I know that I could never love any other man
One of these days you'll understand
Understand
We're gonna love one another till morning comes
Sweet salvation for what we've done
Give up resisting one by one
One by one
We're gonna love one another
We're gonna love one another
Give up resisting one by one
