Lyrics

The Only Girl
You were the one, the only one,
The only girl I ever loved
The only girl I really wanted for my own
The only dream I ever had
The only way that I could live
Happy ever after, not alone

He was the one, the only one
The only man I dared to trust
The only man who I confided in that day
The only dream I ever had
The only way that I could live
Betrayed both sides, I went my lonely way

So why me now
A lifetime gone
So what's gone wrong
To bring you here
I need to know
How your life's been
And why you chose
To leave him there
Can you say, what's gone so wrong, you left him there?

Yes it was him, and only him
The only man who broke my trust
The only man to steal a lover from a friend
Stole my dream, broke my heart
Made us live our lives apart
I'd thought, that was the way, my life would end

Bridge:
Now I don't know what to think
Can't believe you're standing here
The only girl I ever wanted for my own
The dream I had so long ago
The dream I lost because you chose
To go with him and leave me here, alone

So now you say
Our life's not gone
And it's not wrong
Your standing here
Still need to know
My only girl
Just why you chose
To leave him there
Please tell me what's gone wrong to leave him there

So it was him, had to be him,
The man I thought might break your trust
The type of man who'd look for women keen to play,
Stole my girl, my only girl
Now you've left him, walked away
To where you know my love will never end

Tell me again
Our life's not gone
I can't believe
You're here with me
We should forget
How life has been
My only girl
Don't go back there
I'm just so pleased it all went wrong, and now you're here
I'm just so pleased it all went wrong, and now you're here

Hey, you're the one, the only girl,
The only girl I'll ever love
One girl on earth I chose to be my own
The only dream I'll ever have
The only way I want to live
Happy ever after, not alone

Hey, you're the one, the only girl,
The only girl I'll ever love
Happy ever after, now you're home
Happy ever after:
Now you're home
