The Only One

I’m not the first to fall in love
Or to burn with an aching in my throat
But something’s calling out to me like fire
And it’s you that I want to take me home

You are kind, you are gentle
You are crazy, you are wild
You are strong and you are loving
You’re the only one I want

I’m not the first to hold your hand
But damn, I would love to be the last
I’ll stand with you as long as you will let me
As the future turns to past

But I gotta tell you
That I am bruised and broken
The truth has been spoken
These wounds I have ain’t never gonna heal
Though I’m bruised and broken
My heart’s wide open
I know who I am and what I have...what I have to do

I’m not the first to stay up all night
With a love song in my head
But something’s calling out to me like fire
And it’s with you that I want to lay my head
