Lyrics
ALWAYS THE ONE
You sleep in my heart
I know when you roll over because it wakes me up again
To the truth that you have been
Always the one
The dream I still have
The crowd starts to get loud and I'm pushing my way through
Oh, but they can see it too
Your time has come
You were never going to get famous, they swore to me
They promised me
Our children would blame us if we ever gave them time
Oh, how could I have not known then that you
Were always the one
The time in between
The day that you shared your plans and I'd known it all along
Like living in a song
You'd never sung
And where we are now
You're laying it out on stage and your leveling the world
There's a sparkle to the girl
Leaves us all numb
You were always going to be something just more than me
So it's hard for me
To realize the one thing I'd ever earned is gone
Oh, see me and hear me say you
Were always the one
Said all I can say, and anyway
You've heard it all
And that's not just from me
About how I believed in you all along
How all that I said was wrong
And you are the one
You are the one
