You're The One lyrics

When I was a child

I cried on mother's shoulder

She would look at me and say:

“When you grow older

You will come to know

The joy and love of one good man

Everything will come in time

If you believe it

Anything you truly want

You can achieve it

Picture In your mind the love you'll find

With one good man”

Someday a prince will

Come your way

He'll smile at you and say

He's waited all his life

For someone like you

And if the love is real

Within your heart you'll feel

“I'm yours for life

Cuz you're the one

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one for me”

Many years have passed away

Since mother told me

I would find a man

To love, to have and hold me

There were many men

But none of them that one good man

I began to doubt that I would

Find my true love

But then before I knew what happened

I found you, love

You were like a dream come true

You were that one good man

Someday a prince will

Come your way

He'll smile at you and say

He's waited all his life

For someone like you

And if the love is real

Within your heart you'll feel

I'm yours for life

Cuz you're the one

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one for me

It's true, I knew

From that day on

My lonely days were gone

Those lonely tears have dried

Since you are by my side

Now and forever more

You'll be with me

And we will love

You are my other half

When I was a child I cried

On mother's shoulder

She would look at me and say:

When you grow older

You'll find a man to love

And now I see that

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one

You're the one for me
