"The One" lyrics

"The One"

How long have I been standing here, my friend
Has it been so long
I've been spreading myself so thin
And I've been so wrong

I don't wanna be the one you run to
And I don't wanna be your only one
I don't wanna be the one you turn to
And I don't wanna be the one

Why did all the good times turn to sin
And has it been so long
I've been standing here in my footprints
And I am so wrong

You shone on me, all the good times with you
Where all the smiles belong
You trust in me to save the last tear for you
'Cause I've been so wrong

I don't wanna be the one you run to
And I don't wanna be your only one
I don't wanna be the one you turn to
And I don't wanna be the one

Hey now, it's been so long
Hey hey, won't you believe in me
Hey now, I've come so far
Hey now, won't you believe in me

Frustrations, my aberrance
My time in my life
I can't be what you see in me
I can't breathe

I don't wanna be the one you run to
And I don't wanna be your only one
I don't wanna be the one you turn to
And I don't wanna be the one

I don't wanna be the one you run to
And I don't wanna be your only one
I don't wanna be the one you turn to
And I don't wanna be the one
