You'Re the One

Looking into the ground
I knew I had seen a better day, but when?
Yet there you stood before me raising my chin
To see the light streaming over your face

I was blinded for that single moment
And then everything just came together
You make me weak in the knees
But oh what a feeling!

The warmth of your caressing hands
As I look up into your eyes
And know you’re the one
Made everything else in life seem so miniscule

I want to spend the rest of my life with you
I can see everything before us
I want to be there when you’re down
Putting my arms around you never felt so right!

Your lips, your eyes, your hair, your hands
Those hands, God never made hands so delicate!
Knowing, not just hoping, I know it
I can see it in the way you smile, you’re the one

I can taste you on my lips
I can smell you on my clothes
Where have you been all of these years?
