lyrics

You’re the only one

Sometimes you’ll feel blue
Sometimes you’ll feel low
Sometimes there is nothing
You can do
Until you
Let it
Go

I’ve been
Growing so much
That I can no longer hide
All of the marks
On my skin
From growing
From growing
Into the man
I’m knowing

Let’s take a chance on me
Did you see
I was a cannonball coming
Rolling down the hill
To the sounds of thunder
Plummeting
Smashing through the roof
Ending right next to
The place where I was
When I was slumbering
Out on the verandah
To the sounds of
Some kind of nature

You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one

So I’m taking it slow
Building my bones
Consulting the omens
On which direction to go
Building this castle
From the inside out
Not worried about the future
Because I’m here right now
Which is why
I be placing
One brick after the other
To show the universe
That I be a steady lover
Building this home
As a beautiful gift
Not only for myself
But for all of my friends

You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one

But I got your back
Yeah I got your back
Got your back
Baby I got ya
Got ya
I got your back
Yeah I got your back
Got your back
Cos you got mine
Got mine

All these moments drifting by
All these days are mixing
Into the sweetest time
Of undeniable wealth
And life gets by
And I’ll go cruising with you
Just my baby blue and me
Oh can’t you see
That it’s not your hairstyle
Though it’s good
It’s not the way you look
Though damn you’re beautiful
Oh baby it’s the way that
You make me feel
I can’t deny it’s real
Cannot deny it
In any way

You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one for me
You’re the only one
