only one

by james taylor 

i don't know on which album james taylor originally recorded this song. i first saw it 
on a tv programme. the band in which i used to play performed it once or twice and 
i really like it. so, here it is..

Chorus:
You are my only one,  You are my only one
Well I'm telling you now you're my only one

I've got two long legs like to carry me, two sharp eyes to look for the fight
Two strong arms to hold on tight, two good friends on my left and right
But only one only one

Chorus:
You are my only one, You are my only one
Don't be leaving me now you're my only one

There's only one road before me, too many turns in the way
Thousands of things to do today, millions of moments I must admit
But only one only one

Chorus:
You are my only one,  You are my only one
Well I'm telling you now you're my only one

Taken for granted and pushed aside
All that it wanted was a place to run and hide
Missing message in a hollow tree
Hidden deep inside a memory
And the memory seems like dreams
Hundreds of hopes in the past
Nevertheless it was never the last
Hold on strong or you fade out fast
And only one only one

Chorus: Three times
