One True Thing
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.
Everyday I turn on the evening news
And I got to tell you
I think the whole worlds gone crazy
Everytime I am turning around someone is selling something new
It's getting so bad
I don't believe anything anyone tells me
But baby you have the most honest eyes
Maybe your the piece I'm missing in my life
I am looking for one true thing
One true thing that I can believe in
Searching for one real love
All my life I have been waiting
For one thing that's true
Could it be you?
Seems like everytime I am walking down the street
No one even looks me in the eye
Everyones got an angle
Everyones got agendas
And a secret to keep
That is the one thing
On which you can rely
When you look at me I think I see something new
Tell me baby, can I put my faith in you?
I am looking for one true thing
One true thing that I can believe in
Searching for one real love
All my life I have been waiting
For one thing that is true
Could it be you?
So tell me before I go too far
Tell me now before I give you my heart
I am looking for one real love
All my life I have been waiting
I am looking for one true thing
One true thing that I can believe in
Searching for one real love
All my life I have been waiting
For one thing that is true
Could it be you?
Could it be you?
