*One

One glance and I knew

          I had to have him

One word and I knew

          He would be mine

One joke and I knew

          I had fallen

One call and I knew

          You thought so too



One day and I knew

          I had lost you

One second too late

          I had waited too long



One day and I knew

          You were gone

One call and I knew

          There were no more

One joke and I knew

          I had fallen more

One word and I knew

          My heart was broken

One glance and I knew

          It was the last
