Story Behind The Song

I think this must happen to most guys and gals at some time in their life.

Song Description

A guy sees a girl across the room and starts to fantasize that she might BE THE ONE. The more he thinks about it, the more real it seems to become. He imagines what it would be like, only to wake from his daydream, still wondering about her and what he should do, from across the room.

Lyrics

Be The One

I saw her across the room
Not sure what I should do
The last thing on my mind
But something deep inside

Started hopin' she'll
Be The One who catches my eye.
Brushes my arm as she walks by
And plays those silly games
Remembering my name

I started dreamin' she'll
Be The One friends tease me about
The reason I tell them I can' go out
(And) Spending all my time
Always on my mind

So we went out, about. I got to know her
She laughed and cried upon my shoulder
I carried her across the river
And dunked her in halfway
And I prayed, don't let her
Be the one that got away

(musical Interlude)

Now here's hopin' she'll
Be The One sayin "yes" tonight
Wants me with her all my life
Nothin else I can say
So, Oh God don't let her
Be the one that got away

I see my wife my friend my only lover
My life depends on; no other
Knows me better she's mine forever
Don't wake me from this dream

I kept thinkin' she'll
Be The One friends tease me about
The reason I tell them I can' go out
(And) Spending all my time
Always on my mind

Be The One, all my life
I started hopin she'd Be The One, oh tonight
I dreamed she'd Be The One, starting tonight
Oh baby, Be The One. Be the One

I saw her across the room
Not sure what I should do
