You smiled at me,
You almost took my breath away
And now I know,
How I feel,
And now I know,
That this emptiness had healed
So tell me, how to win your love
Cause you're the one I'm dreaming of
Will the moment wait for me
Will I ever make you see
You're the only one
I can hear,
The sound of silence when you're near
mmmmmmm, Have no fear,
Cause I will dry your every tear
And now I know,
How I feel,
And now I know,
That this emptiness had healed
So tell me, how to win your love
Cause you're the one I'm dreaming of
Will the moment wait for me
Will I ever make you see
You're the only one
If you want me, if you want me
And if you need me
And if the moment ever comes
When you're lost and all alone
You will find me there, find me there, find me there
So tell me, how to win your love
Cause you're the one I'm dreaming of
Will the moment wait for me
Will I ever make you see
You're the only one, you are the only one,
You're the one I'm dreaming of, oh baby
Will the moment wait for me
Will I ever make you see
You're the only one
