This One's For You
Many times I've written trying to find the words to say
But it never seems to turn out right it never came my way
Many hours I've laboured waking through the restless night
So many times unending praying just to get it right

Can't you hear me now I'm pleading, desperately I'm feeling
I guess that's just the way the story goes

This one's for you and only you, cos you're my every reason
You see the best in me and all I do I swear it's true
And now you know at last, this one's for you

Before the day I met you feeling uninspired
All the words that came to me were not what I desired
Now you're here beside me heading somewhere we've never been
You're my strength my guiding light you're my everything


Can't you hear me now I'm pleading, desperately I'm feeling
I guess that's just the way the story goes

This one's for you and only you, cos you're my every reason
You see the best in me and all I do I swear it's true
And now you know at last, this one's for you
Oh Yeah

Can't you hear me now I'm pleading, desperately I'm feeling
I guess that's just the way the story goes

This one's for you and only you, cos you're my every reason
You see the best in me and all I do I swear it's true
And now you know at last, this one's for you





And now you know at last, now you know at last
This one's for you
