PAUL MCCARTNEY - This One lyrics

rate me

Written and composed by Paul McCartney

Did I ever take you in my arms

Look you in the eye, tell you that I do?

Did I ever open up my heart

Let you look inside?

If I never did it, I was only waiting

For a better moment that didn't come

There never could be a better moment

Than this one, this one

The swan is gliding above the ocean

A God is riding upon his back

How calm the water and bright the rainbow

Fade this swan to black

Did I ever touch you on the cheek

Say that you were mine, thank you for the smile?

Did I ever knock upon your door

Try to get inside?

If I never did it, I was only waiting

For a better moment that didn't come

There never could be a better moment

Than this one, this one

The swan is gliding above the ocean

A God is riding upon his back

How calm the water and bright the rainbow

Fade this one to black

What opportunities did we allow to flow by

Feeling like the time it wasn't quite right

What kind of magic might have worked if we had stayed calm

Couldn't I have given you a better life?

Did you ever take me in your arm

Look me in the eye, tell me that you do?

Did I ever open up my heart

Let you look inside?

If I never did it, I was only waiting

For a better moment that didn't come

There never could be a better moment

Than this one, this one

The swan is gliding above the ocean

A God is riding upon his back

How calm the water and bright the rainbow

Fade this swan to black

The swan is gliding

A God is riding

How calm the water

How calm the water and bright the rainbow
