Thinkin' about nothing at all you're
You're the one I need when I'm
Feeling good about anything I think
You're the one I reach for
When I wanna celebrate something
You're the one I look for
In everything everywhere and I
Oh, I'm doing my best
It don't always work
'Cause I get distracted and I know it hurts
'Cause you love so easy and you put me first
And so while I have you
I'm tryna be the man you need
I'm tryna be keep you next to me
Oh, I'm tryna be the one you call
The one you reach for anything at all, oh-yeah
Oh, how'm I doing? (yeah-yeah)
Oh, how'm I doing? (ooh-yeah)
Oh, I'm tryna be the one you call
The one you reach for anything at all, oh-yeah
You're the one I want when I'm
Losing myself in a moment
You're the one I'd run for
Oh, I'd step into traffic I know that
You'd be at my front door
Fighting for me like you fought for me so many times (oh, yeah, oh)
Oh, I'm doing my bestIt don't always work
'Cause I get distracted and I know it hurts
'Cause you love so easy and you put me first
And so while I have you (ooh)

So can I be the one you call
When you're thinking 'bout nothing?
And can I be the one you reach for
When you haven't been sleeping at all?
Can I be?
Can I be the one?
