The One for Me
James Cottriall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I look into your eyes
I seem to fall for days
The light you're bring into my life
Is brighter than the sunshine's raise

And I cannot help to fall for you
No I can't help before for you
And every time I hold your hand
I'm warm right up inside
The feelings that I have for you
Are just too great for me to hide

So why you're coming home tonight
Cause Baby I'm gonna treat you right
So why you're coming home tonight
Cause Baby I'm gonna treat you so right

It seems that you're the one for me
It seems that you're the one for me




There ain't no place I rather be
And your're right here next to me
