I wrote this for my brother’s wedding—it’s about finding that special someone in your life. This song still moves me.

Lyrics

YOU ARE THE ONE

I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I LAID EYES ON YOU
ALL THOSE MANY YEARS AGO
I FELT MY HEART BEAT FAST, AND THEN I KNEW
YOU WERE ALWAYS ON MY MIND
YES, IT HAPPENED EVERY TIME I LOOKED AT YOU

I DON’T KNOW HOW IT GOT AWAY FROM ME
OH, I DIDN’T PLAN ON YOU
YOU TOOK MY HEART AND YOU HELD IT CAREFULLY
WELL, I ADMIT I’M KINDA SLOW
BUT I HAVE TO LET YOU KNOW
OH, I GOTTA LET YOU KNOW

YOU ARE THE ONE
YOU ARE THE ONE FOR ME
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I COULD FEEL THIS WAY, THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE
YOU ARE THE ONE
THE ONE TO HELP ME SEE
THAT LOVE IS MANY THINGS
I WOULD RISK EVERYTHING TO HAVE YOU HERE WITH ME

NOW THE TIME HAS COME TO TAKE ANOTHER CHANCE
OH, IT’S NOW OR NEVER
WE CAN EITHER PLAY IT SAFE, OR DANCE THE DANCE
DON’T YOU KNOW MY LOVE IS TRUE
I WANTA SHARE MY LIFE WITH YOU
SHARE MY LIFE WITH YOU

YOU ARE THE ONE
YOU ARE THE ONE FOR ME
I NEVER THOUGHT MY HEART COULD OPEN UP, THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE
YOU ARE THE ONE
THE ONE TO HELP ME SEE
THAT LOVE IS MANY THINGS
I WOULD RISK EVERYTHING

YOU ARE THE ONE
YOU ARE THE ONE FOR ME
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I COULD FEEL A LOVE THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE
YOU ARE THE ONE
MY LOVE, MY FAMILY
I WOULD DO ANYTHING
I WOULD RISK EVERYTHING
TO HAVE YOU HERE WITH ME
TO HAVE YOU HERE WITH ME
