The Only One
I come from a long line of leavers
Out of the garden gate with an apple in their hands
Well I expect and I believe it
You're gonna run out of love, you're gonna give me the shove
'Cause that's the thing that lovers do, then there's you
You found me cynical and jaded
You lifted my mask and lightened me up
And when my black eyes have faded
I found they were not gouged, I had the coal in my mouth
I've never seen the old age new and then there's you
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
I betrayed you with a little kiss
I thought you'd find someone better
And you forgave me even for this
Came to the upper room, you dragged me from the tomb
There is none both good and true and then there's you
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
Still you're the only one who never leaves
Out of the garden gate with an apple in their hands
Well I expect and I believe it
You're gonna run out of love, you're gonna give me the shove
'Cause that's the thing that lovers do, then there's you
You found me cynical and jaded
You lifted my mask and lightened me up
And when my black eyes have faded
I found they were not gouged, I had the coal in my mouth
I've never seen the old age new and then there's you
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
I betrayed you with a little kiss
I thought you'd find someone better
And you forgave me even for this
Came to the upper room, you dragged me from the tomb
There is none both good and true and then there's you
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
You're the only one, who knows my secrets
You're the only one
Still you're the only one who never leaves
And I wake up to this mystery
Still you're the only one who never leaves
