You're the One
I knew you were the one, were my one and only
And I knew that you would always know me
'Cause you were the one who kept me from feeling
So sad and lonely in my life, and
I never knew life could be so wonderful
That there could be someone who was so beautiful
And I never knew that I could be so free
To love someone like you, and
I wanna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
But you're the one
I thought my life was drawn in shades of gray, and
That was how I would live my every day, and
Aimless, no direction found
My destiny was going through the motions of a life, and
Then you came along with your sweet, sweet smile, and
Then you put your cheek right next to mine, and
All those shades of gray slowly turned into a
New technicolor world, and
I'm gonna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
And I'm gonna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
But you're the one
You're the one
Your smile contains the sun
Rays of glory
You're the one
(Wow)
And I knew that you would always know me
'Cause you were the one who kept me from feeling
So sad and lonely in my life, and
I never knew life could be so wonderful
That there could be someone who was so beautiful
And I never knew that I could be so free
To love someone like you, and
I wanna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
But you're the one
I thought my life was drawn in shades of gray, and
That was how I would live my every day, and
Aimless, no direction found
My destiny was going through the motions of a life, and
Then you came along with your sweet, sweet smile, and
Then you put your cheek right next to mine, and
All those shades of gray slowly turned into a
New technicolor world, and
I'm gonna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
And I'm gonna love you forever
And I'll be with you worse and for better
And I never thought I'd fall
But you're the one
You're the one
Your smile contains the sun
Rays of glory
You're the one
(Wow)
