One Word Lyrics

Beautiful, magnificent, extraordinary, fine

Incredible, wonderful, such a sweet design

None of these words seem quite right in line

Got my thesaurus worn down to the spine

Flipping pages trying to describe what you make me feel inside

Webster's dictionary ain't helping me find

The perfect combination of letters to get it right

Been scribbling metaphors since midnight

Comparing you to stars just doesn't shine

And every poem I write falls flat when I try

To capture this feeling that makes me feel so alive

Every adjective feels too small

Every phrase hits like a brick wall

Running out of ink in my pen

Starting over again and then

One word, that's all I need (oh-oh)

One word sets my heart free (yeah-yeah)

Been looking through books endlessly

When the answer was simply "you and me"

One word, that's all it takes (oh-oh)

One word and my heart breaks

Tried writing it down in cursive and print

Asked my mama for advice but she just smiled and winked

Said sometimes the simplest truth makes the most sense

When you're running circles 'round what you're trying to express

Called up my professor from English class

He laughed and said "sometimes first thoughts last"

Now I'm sitting here with papers scattered on the floor

Realizing less could mean so much more

Every adjective feels too small

Every phrase hits like a brick wall

Running out of ink in my pen

Starting over again and then

Every adjective feels too small

Every phrase hits like a brick wall

Running out of ink in my pen

Starting over again and then

One word, that's all I need

One word sets my heart free

Been looking through books endlessly

When the answer was simply "you and me"

One word, that's all it takes (oh-oh)

One word and my heart breaks

One word and my heart breaks

**[Bridge/Rap]**

Listen up while I break it down

Been through every word in this small town

Spectacular, phenomenal, tried them all

But big words make big feelings feel small

Sometimes the truth ain't hard to tell

Don't need no fancy words to cast this spell

'Cause when I look at you, it's plain to see

The only word that matters is "we"

One word, that's all I need

One word sets my heart free

One word sets my heart free

Been looking through books endlessly

When the answer was simply "you and me"

One word, that's all it takes (oh-oh)

One word and my heart breaks

Beautiful, magnificent, extraordinary, divine

But baby, the only word I need is "mine"
