PAUL SIMON - You're the One lyrics

rate me

Words & music by Paul Simon

May twelve angels guard you

While you sleep

Maybe that's a waste of angels I don't know

I'd do anything to keep you safe

From the danger that surrounds us

Little by little

Bit by bit

Little bit by little bit

Now you got it that's it

What're you thinking?

Things'll go sour?

Take its temperature every hour

Nervous when you own it

Nervous when it's gone

What do you think has been going on

For so long?

Bridge:

You are the air

Inside my chest

Chorus:

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

But when I hear it from the other side

It's a completely different song

I'm the one who made you cry

And I'm the one who's wrong

In my dream you spoke to me

And you said

Chorus:

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

You're the one

Verse:

Nature gives us shapeless shapes

Clouds and waves and flame

But human expectation

Is that love remains the same

And when it doesn't

We point our fingers

And blame blame blame

Chorus:

You're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

And I'm the one

I broke your heart

I made you cry

And you're the one

You broke my heart

You made me cry

We're the ones
