"To Be The One" lyrics

"To Be The One"

It happens so easy, in the wink of an eye
The moment you cut the cable
The rest of the world goes drifting by
Leaving you high and dry

Your love was there waiting to slip me the key
It's just that behind my curtain
Your love wasn't getting through to me
And setting my spirit free

What started me thinking of changing the plan
What took me so long to find out
That you only want me as I am?
Want me the way that I am

See how the silence sends it on down to you
Now all you need is to believe it's true

This lesson is over, this message got through
I'm turning the corner
You know that I'm coming home to you
To be the one I can be

What started me thinking of changing the plan
What took me so long to find out
That you only want me as I am?
Want me the way that I am

I know you told me but I had to find it out for myself
Oh sweet baby, I cried
And when I saw the way I hurt you, saw the tears in your eyes
But now it's easy 'cause I'm learning from my past mistakes
And I never make the same one twice
Listen to me when I tell you this is no disguise

See how the silence sends it on down to you
Now all you need is to believe it's true

This lesson is over, this message got through
I'm turning the corner
You know that I'm coming home to you
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be
Yeah
To be the one I can be
Yeah
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be
To be the one I can be

Be the one I can be
