The One That You Love
LP Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now that you've got what you need
Girl, if we're gonna be honest
Honestly, what's left for me
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause all I got
Is close but not
Try to be the fire for you, try to be the sun
Try to be your home and the place that you come to
Babe, I took the whole world and put it in your hands
I'm really trying hard but I don't understand
Tell me, oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Don't treat my love like a habit
Why don't you show me a way
I'd give it to you, you can have it
I just wish I knew what to say
'Cause all I got
Is close but not
And all I want is to know just how
Try to be the fire for you, try to be the sun
Try to be your home and the place that you come to
Babe, I took the whole world and put it in your hands
I'm really trying hard but I don't understand
Tell me, oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
How to be the one, how to be the one, how to be the one
Try to be the fire for you, try to be the sun
Try to be your home and the place that you come to
Babe, I took the whole world and put it in your hands
I'm really trying hard but I don't understand
How to be the one oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
How to be the one that you love
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
How to be the one
How to be the one that you love

'Cause all I got
Since I only possess
Is close but not
something almost but not quite what you need
And all I want is to know just how
And all I want is to learn how to
Try to be the fire for you, try to be the sun
Attempted to be the passion and light in your life
Try to be your home and the place that you come to
Aspired to be where you feel most comfortable and welcomed
Babe, I took the whole world and put it in your hands
Honey, I gave everything to you and made you the center of my universe
I'm really trying hard but I don't understand
I am trying my best but I still don't comprehend
Tell me, oh oh oh
Please tell me
How to be the one that you love
What can I do to become the one you love?
Don't treat my love like a habit
Don't take my love for granted
Why don't you show me a way
Please show me how
I'd give it to you, you can have it
I would give you anything, you can possess it
I just wish I knew what to say
I just wish I knew how to express myself
How to be the one oh oh oh
What can I do to become the one
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
