The One For Me
Mandi Mapes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the creation, you're the creator
And I am imperfect, but you're the redeemer
And I'm filled with questions but you are the answer
I am a sinner, but you are my savior and
You, you are the one for me
And I belong to you
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

For the record I'm a full time failure
You know me better than I know myself
I'm a high class screwed up mess but
You love me just because

I'm the creation, you're the creator
And I am imperfect but you're the redeemer
And I'm filled with questions but you are the answer
I am a sinner, but you are my savior and
You, you are the one for me
And I belong to you
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

You are the one for me
And I belong to you
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Put a new song in my soul
Now I'm singing to this world
It can keep its empty promises
In my heart now I am sure
That you are the one for me

For the record I'm a full time failure
You know me better than I know myself




I'm a high class screwed up mess but
You love me just because

I love you more than words could say
When you're sleeping I'm awake, tears on my pillow case.
Only one thing matters in this life
Will you make it to the other side, and do you believe in bridges?

I know where you are, I see where you're coming from.
I've been there myself, put my faith in a man made god.
I know where you are.

Have you ever seen true love
And do you know what it's made of, and where it came from?
Or could it be the world has left you blind
And everyday you pass it by, you don't even recognize it.

I know where you are, I see where you're coming from.
I've been there myself, put my faith in a man made god.
I know where you are.

Jesus paid it all
And it is well on my soul
And when the waters rise and the stars fall from the skies
I will not be alone
No, I will not be alone

I know where you are, I see where you're coming from.
I've been there myself, put my faith in a man made god.
I know where you are.
