THE ONE FOR YOU



I watch the rising sun
And breathe the mist of early morning
Another night is done
The birds rejoice, a new day’s dawning
I’m here to stay, I hear you say
As darkness turns to grey
Well it’s so very contrary

I feel the slightest touch
So finely tuned are all my senses
I’ve never laughed this much
You’ve broken through these tired defences
I’m here to stay, won’t turn away
The night may fade to day
But it’s so very contrary

………………………………..

Chorus
Oh my love for you
Hope will see us through
Pray my love will do
Let me be the one honey
Let me be the one for you

…………………………………..

So may we breathe as one
And put our trust in our tomorrows
Cos soon this life is gone
And it’s too short to fill with sorrows
Live for today
Enjoy your stay
It all soon fades away
And it’s so very contrary.

Repeat chorus twice
