Carly Simon - YOU'RE THE ONE lyrics

rate me

Well I spent all night alone with you

And you weren't even there

Your eyes burned on me like the midnight sun

And somewhere in the night I knew

How much I really cared

'Cause you're the one

You're the one

For me you are the one

I tried to keep my distance afraid of striking out

But protect myself from life is all I've done

So I got to tell you now

Before another night goes by

That you're the one, you're the one

For me you are the one

And sometimes it hits you right away

And sometimes it takes awhile

Oh but now that you've crept up on me

There's nothing I can do to stay away from you though Lord

I've tried to keep it down

But resistance only moves it to the front

So I got to tell you now and not worry what you'll say

'Cause you're the one

You're the one

For me you are the one
