You're The One
Bobby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the reason I'm living
You're the breath that I take
You're the stars in my heaven
You're the sun when I wake
You're the reason I'm living
You carry me through
All of life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you

A long, long time ago
When I was down
You picked me up
And showed me that true love
Still could be found

You're the reason I do things
You're the things that I do
You're the reason I'm livin'
I'd be lost without you

Tell me again (you're the reason I'm living)
Oh, you carry me through




All of life's little burdens
I'd be lost without you

When it comes to twisting, I just got to keep insisting
Oh baby, you sure do swing
When it comes to twisting, I just got to keep insisting
Oh daddy hey, you are the King
Baby you got me beat up and down, inside out and across
Oh
But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright
You're the boss
Hey talking 'bout dancing and down on romancing
Big daddy you make the scene
Talking 'bout the days when we ended down the hall romancing
Oh now baby, you are the queen
Oh when push comes to shove, when it comes down to love
You're a horse


Oh but in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright
Baby, you're the boss
You're the best of everything
You're a peach, you're a plum
You're a diamond, you're a pearl
You're the best of everything
Ah, daddy you're my man
Baby you're my girl



Now when it comes to knowing which way the wind is blowing
Oh now baby, you sure are wise
Yeah, when it comes to knowing which way the wind is blowing
Oh daddy, you take the prize
Baby you're a genius when it comes to cooking up some chili sauce
Oh yeah
But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright
You're the boss
You're the boss
You're the boss
You're the boss
But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright
You're the boss
Ok baby
Baby you're the boss
You're the boss
You're the boss

This is so cute. I love the whole jazzy, sultry vibe.

@MariaMaria-nh3to

omg, Miranda's dimples are killing me, sooo cuuuteeee <3

@UyenBuith

Gotta give it to Miranda. She's gorgeous and I love her voice, very flirty and soft :)

@PBkittyxo

Miranda is like 31 years old but she looks like she's 15 or something..i'm i the only one who thinks that?

@fasfasfafdfasfasfaf1161

you're not alone, I also think her face has something like a 10 years old child... hahaha.... Although she's still so pretty and stunning, i wish she looked more adult 

@SushiSenseofTouch

If kept well, a girl can look almost the same throughout her 20's to early 30's. Though of course they must also rely on make-up to cover up any flaws.

@myforbiddenlove321

It's because of her round face and dimples. Also she has super good skin and the better your skin is the younger you look and she has like zero wrinkles or blemishes

@marivelnegrana3966

You're right Ruth Cassie, When I first see her  i thought she was only a teenager. I only knew her lately but I really admire her looks and attitude. Her face is so perfect.

@kinndah2519

***** I wouldn't go so far as to say she has no skin blemishes or problem. You never saw her wake up in the morning. No1 wakes up looking ready for a close up photo shoot. I like this song tho, n she is an old fashioned cutie pie.
