The One Lyrics

All I ever wanted

Was to see my name in lights, glowing

Up on the stage

My own golden age

Getting that crowd going

I wished so hard to not fall on deaf ears

But my pursuit brought all of my worst fears

Can you deliver me?

Are you the one

Cause a million before you were quickly undone

Set me free

Free from the man

Who long ago told me

My wish was his command

Maybe I was selfish and foolish, but all the same

Back then I thought any price was worth the cost of fame

Oh, I'm so sick of waiting all the time

And little deals that leave me blind

So darling listen up

Be my aid or stepping stone

Can you deliver me?

Are you the one

Cause a million before you were quickly undone

Set me free

Free from the man

Who long ago told me

My wish was his command

It was simple or so it seemed

But now I'm alone and unknown out at sea

My love lies in ruins, like those you have seen

My heart like a stone, will you dance to its beat
