The One Lyrics

It's Friday night

And he's working late

Been twenty years

She's used to the wait

She'll read a book

Then toss and turn

It's just his work

No cause for concern

He slips into bed

With a passionate kiss

Their bodies collide

With the fire

That they've missed

She says she loves him

And he says the same

But they're not

The only ones

Stuck in this game

The other one's

For money

But she knows how

To play her part

Still she rushes

To the one who

Truly has

Her heart

And she's feeling

So alone

Waitin' for the one

He's got to get

Home now

The sun's

Almost rose

She'd be so hurt

If she knew

Where he goes

He crawls into bed

And she wakes

With a smile

But he tells her

He's tired

Falls asleep

Like a child

She lays

And holds him

So thankful

He's hers

Having no idea

When he leaves

What occurs

His eyes are closed

As he dreams of

His lover

While she's

Across town

Waitin' on another
