The 1
otis junior & dr dundiff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is that the sun?
Shit, what time is it?
Good morning love
Stretch my arms and lick it
Pull the shades up and
Let the sunshine in the warming soul
It feels so good waking up to you
What′d you do with all my blues, girl?
You add this rosy-colored tint to all my views, girl
Something I could get used to

Now I know that you're the one
I know that you′re the one for me, darling
You're all I need
I know that you're the one for me

Finally
The day has passed and I got time to breathe
Now I′m heading home
It feels so good to know that
You′ve been waiting on me patiently
And aye, you're the last thing to touch my lips
Feel the heat when I breathe you in now
The trace you leaves are fading funky evergreen now
Think you know what I mean, I

Now I know that you′re the one
I know that you're the one for me, darling




You′re all I need
I know that you're the one for me
