The One

Everything is sinking
I think I’ve known it from the moment
That I saw you in your corduroys
Can you tell I’m thinking
Of all the jokes we’re yet to make
And I can’t wait to call me yours, boy
All I taste are roses
I hear your name and feel my
Centre of gravity take flight
And settle on your backbone
I think I’ll know forevermore that any
Other glow is fake light now I’ve seen you
I’ve seen it all

You know I’ll dream about waking up
Knowing I know you
It’s this lightning bolt of not enough
When I have to say "see you soon"
I’ll dance around my bedroom
Singing out of key
That I’ve found the one, the one, the one
The one who is gonna dance with me

Suddenly I’m floating
And I see sunrise and a hand that’ll
Take mine when time goes black
And I’m bad at hoping
So I’ll throw my very best attempts at him
And hope he throws his back
I wanna meet your mother
I wanna write a thousand
Accolades to your hair
And the gap in your front teeth
I wanna say I love ya
And I know it’s crazy how the words I
Used to prison guard suddenly fly free

Now I’ve seen you i’ve seen it all

You know I’ll dream about waking up
Knowing I know you
It’s this lightning bolt of not enough
When I have to say "see you soon"
And I’ll dance around my bedroom
Singing out of key
That I’ve found the one, the one, the one
The one who is gonna dance with me

I wanna know your birthday
I wanna know your favorite color
And I felt an earthquake
The first time I heard your laughter
And I hope to death you haven’t
Got someone waiting on you
'Cause I know I left my reason
And my pride beside my bed, oh
I wanna pinkie promise
And have you know how much I mean it
I wanna know that honest doesn’t
Connote who spoke the meanest
And now I’m dancing 'round my
Bedroom in my dressing gown, and damn
The only song left in my head is how
I finally understand the words I’ve written
They were waiting for you

You know I’ll dream about waking up
Knowing I know you
It’s this lightning bolt of not enough
When I have to say "see you soon"
And I’ll dance around my bedroom
Singing out of key
That I’ve found the one, the one, the one
The one you know I’ll dream about waking up
Knowing I know you
It’s this lightning bolt of not enough
When I have to say "see you soon"
And I’ll dance around my bedroom
Singing out of key
That I’ve found the one, the one, the one
The one who is gonna dance with me
