Only You

Verse1

All I had to do

was look you in the eye

bare my soul to you

just one last time

before you say no once again

and walk away

with someone else

and leave me torn up inside

 

Bridge

But before you leave

before you walk away

there's someting

I just gotta say

 

Chorus

I can't live another day

without you

with you here

I can't see no one else

wish you would see me 

the way I see you

then you wouldn't leave

my heart up on a shelf

if you just seen me

the way I see you

then you'd see

for there's no one else

there's Only You

there's Only You for me

 

Verse2

I can't seem to find my way

without you

I just wanna wipe the tears

from your face

everytime I see you

you blow my soul away

when I look you in the eye

I long for your embrace

just come for me

and I won't let you go

'cause it's you and Only You

who has my soul

I won't let you turn

and walk away

 

(solo)

 

Verse3

All you need to know

is how much I love you

I wanna take your soul away

I want you to see this 

side of me

what are you waiting for

when it's just me

I won't rip your soul apart

I won't tear you down

I just wanna love you

and bring you home with me

hand in hand

here we stand

 

Repeat Bridge and Chorus

........Hand in had

here we stand

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I just wrote the lyrics to "Only You" this morning. I've had a woman on my mind a lot lately. My daughter, my Mom, and my daughter's Mom have been persistant on the "Dave needs a girlfriend" thing. I used to tell them"No I don't." Then one day it didn't seem like such a bad idea, To not be alone anymore. To actually have a beautiful woman to love, cherish, and hold. So I began praying to God about this. He has put a certain lady in my face a couple times recently. Here's the kicker. This woman don't even like me in that way at all. As much as I wish she did. She just don't. I'm not real sure what to do about this. I owe this woman an apology cuz of some things that happened a couple years ago. I woke up this morning. The first line in this song popped into my brain. I had to write it down immediately. As I wrote the first line, all the other lines in the song just came to my heart and soul. "Only You" is kind of my plea or my love letter to her asking for a chance. Without sounding desperate. Who knows? Maybe she will actually read this. I honestly have asked God why He keeps putting her in front of me when she don't like me? I believe, Whole heartedly in God's plan. So I'll hang out and see what God would like for to do cuz, to be honest, I really don't wanna mess things up this time.
