The One That Really Matters
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.
I know your mind like the back of my hand,
A race that I ran before,
Are you so blind that you'd turn your back
On love and slam the door,
If you're searching for something more,
Have a good time,
But if you'd follow your heart,
You're gonna find that I'm...
*The one, the one,
The one that really matters,
The one that really cares,
The one, when your whole world is shattered,
Snap your fingers and I'll be there.*
There's someone new,
He's your brand new toy,
You could break that poor boy in two,
If that's your style,
I should have known from the start,
This heart wants no part of you,
But if you're still the same girl I knew,
All in good time,
You're gonna follow your heart,
And you're gonna find I'm still...
( * Repeat)
