Only One

As I lay me down to sleep

I hear her speak to me

"Hello, Mari, how ya doin?"

I think the storm ran out of rain, the clouds are movin'

I know you're happy, 'cause I can see it

So tell the voice inside ya' head to believe it

I talked to God about you, he said he sent you an angel

And look at all that He gave you

You asked for one and you got two

You know I never left you

'Cause every road that leads to heaven's right inside you

So I can say

"Hello, my only one, just like the morning sun

You'll keep on rising till the sky knows your name

Hello, my only one, remember who you are

No, you're not perfect, but you're not your mistakes"

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Oh, the good outweighs the bad, even on your worst day

Remember how I'd say

"Hey, hey, one day you'll be the man you always knew you could be?"

And if you knew how proud I was

You'd never shed a tear, have a fear, no, you wouldn't do that

And though I didn't pick the day to turn the page

I know it's not the end every time I see her face, I hear you say

"Hello, my only one, remember who you are

You got the world 'cause you got love in your hands

You're still my chosen one

So can you understand? Some day you'll understand"

Hear me out, hear me out

I won't go, I won't go

No goodbyes, no goodbyes

Just hello, just hello

And when you cry, I will cry

And when you smile, I will smile

And next time when I look in your eyes

We'll have wings and we'll fly

"Hello, my only one, just like the morning sun

You'll keep on rising till the sky knows your name

And you're still my chosen one, remember who you are

No, you're not perfect, but you're not your mistakes"
