Only You
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.
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
Love is not possession and
It can't be possessed
If I should try to own you
I'd be like all the rest
I've learned from past conviction
That love is not addiction
I've tried that many times
And failed the test
Baby, baby, baby
You're so good for my soul
Baby, baby, baby
I'm the one you can hold
I've simply got to tell
From the bottom of my heart
The first time that I saw you
I was sure right from the start
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
What you are is just enough
Don't have to be no more
I don't care 'bout the way
You wear your hair
I don't need to mold you
I only want to hold you girl
So you can breath
A wholesome breath of air
Mama, mama, mama
come get your baby boy
Mama, mama, mama
You're my sadness and joy
You're my light, shinin' bright
You're the beginning
Of the rest of my life
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
Only you, only you
Only you make my dreams come true
Only you can make it
Only you can make it
Only you can make my grey skies blue
Only you can make it
Only you can make it
Only you can make my dream come true
(Only you) Only you can make it
(Only you) Only you can make it
Only you can make my grey skies blue
(Only you) Only you can make it
(Only you) Only you can make it
Only you can make my dream come true
Only you
Only you
Make my dream come true
