The Only One
Lenny Kravitz · Other Songs - Lenny Kravitz
I've been tryin' to get through to you
Has it really been that long?
I've been thinkin' about you baby
And the way it used to be
There's so many things I want to say
But will the words come out all wrong?
After all that's said and done
You're still the only one
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one
Got to find a way
To get back inside your heart again
If I let you walk away
I'd be dyin' without you baby
So I just keep holdin' on
Don't you know we were meant to be
But then I knew it all along
After all that we've been through
You're still the only one
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one
And the fire of our love
Keeps me runnin' back to you
And no matter where you are
I will never be that far
Away
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see
You're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hopin' there'll come a day
Baby you believe
You're still the only one
Ain't no need to wonder why
I'll love you 'till the day I die
Baby I believe
You're still the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet baby
You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet darlin'
(repeats)
When times are rough and hard
With you is where I want to be, yeah
Aw yeah
When I am down and out, oh yeah
With you is where I'll be
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah baby
The only one for me
Me
Me, yeah
