Lyrics
Be the 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.
They're two lovers in the night
Waiting on the sun to rise
Passing ships into the night
Under different skies
But you just whisper what you said
One last time
I could have sworn I heard you say
That you are mine
Faded flowers in your hand
The best that I could do
It's the only way i've had
Of reaching you
I never saw it like you did
Didn't know that it was there
You don't see it in your hand
Until the end
Be the one and only, wait for me
Will you be the only one
Will you be, be the one and only
Wait for me, will you be the only one
What if I knew how to yell
What would I pray
What if I knew how to tell
What would I say
I will be the only one
If you say you'll never go
I'll be screaming out your name
From the back of ohhhh
Be the one and only, wait for me
Will you be the only one
Will you be, be the one and only
Wait for me; let me be your only one
Be the one, be the one and only
Wait for me; let me be your only one
Will you be, be the one and only
Wait for me; let me be your only one
