The One Who Lyrics

He drives home on a Friday at seven

Leaves the week behind

He can't remember a better time

To thank a world so kind

If she's called he can replay the message

While he pours a drink

Give himself time to read her mind

Gives him time to think

She's the one who took the pain away

She's the one who made it all worthwhile

She's the one who can start it all again

Been a while since he felt so invested

The years can pass you by

Kind of feels like a sell-out gig

The type that bleeds you dry

When she stops by his beach house at sunset

Breezing in so cool

Finds the dough in the usual place

He knows the golden rule

She's the one who fakes the pain away

She's the one who made him feel worthwhile

She's the one who starts him up again

Alone when he wakes

Breakfast tastes of the same mistakes

A heart intact

But the fragile ego breaks

She's the one who took the pain away

She's the one who made it all worthwhile

She's the one who can start it all again
