She's the One

I live my life as I'm told
I walk the path that was laid for me
I follow all the "shoulds" I learned as a boy
At times I thought about love
But told myself that fairy tale
Is just a simple thing reserved for other men
Then she appeared into my world and suddenly
Every dream turned to sand in my throat
She brought to life something inside of me
That I had thought was dead and gone
But she is the one
She's the only one
Who can take me there
And I know that I have to let her go
My wife is my dearest friend
My parents live for this family
I've made such promises
That a good man must keep
But now I know that staying means living half a life
Where I'll be towing the line and never satisfied
But she has awakened a thirst inside of me
It drives and consumes me in ways I've never dreamed
But she is the one
She's the only one
Who can take me there
And I don't know if I can let her go
The clock is ticking
And I can't stay here for too long
And I am sinking
But my heartbeat pushes me along
She is the one
She's the only one
Who can take me there
And I know that I have to let her
She is the one
(She's the one)
She's the only one
(She's the one)
Who can take me there
But I know that I can't let her go
