One Song
The Martins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The truth is baby it's not complicated
I just wake up and you are what I see
It's the small things that mean the most to me
What can I say I just think I'm happy
Forgive me while this might be a little sappy
I'm just glad to have you in my life
Thankful to have you by my side
Can you believe what years of love can do?
These kids running around looking like me and you
They've got your beauty and they've got my heart
They had me smiling right from the start
Oh I've loved every season, I've loved every day
Each one different in its own special way
Baby I never want to forget
This beautiful life that we have lived
So I just thought I'd write you a song
Now don't get me wrong I know that we're not perfect
But baby I believe this love is more than worth
Cause after every struggle and every fight
Baby, if it's possible, I think I might
Love you more
So I just thought I'd write you a song
Girl you are my lover and you are my friend
I want to be with you to the very end
And when our story has been told
I hope we can say that we got to grow old
Oh it's been my honor to walk by your side
And it's been my joy to have your hand in mine
Our love is our legacy
And you are God's gift to me
So I just thought I'd write you a song

@Ninnynavara
There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!
None else could heal all our soul’s diseases,
No, not one! No, not one!
Refrain:
Jesus knows all about our struggles,
He will guide till the day is done;
There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!
No friend like Him is so high and holy,
No, not one! No, not one!
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly,
No, not one! No, not one!
There’s not an hour that He is not near us,
No, not one! No, not one!
No night so dark but His love can cheer us,
No, not one! No, not one!
Did ever saint find this Friend forsake him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Or sinner find that He would not take him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Was e’er a gift like the Savior given?
No, not one! No, not one!
Will He refuse us a home in heaven?
No, not one! No, not one!
