[Intro]
The only one

[Verse 1]
I think of you
And wonder who
You are and what's your line
I wonder if there's someone else
Or if it's true that I'm
The only one
In your life
I only worry
For your sake
I don't know much about
The deals you make
There's so much that
You hide from me
The mystery
Am I the only one?
The only one?

[Refrain]
The only one
The only one
The only one

[Verse 2]
I don't know you
You don't know me
I wonder what we share
It's just that now and then you smile
And suddenly I know you care
And I'm the only one
For a while

[Chorus]
Though you've many reasons
To tell me a lie
I can't help believing
That I should be for you
And you for me
The only one

[Refrain]
(Ah)
The only one
The only one

[Verse 3]
As enigmatic as you can be
I'm not suspicious, naturally
There's so much that you hide from me
The mystery
Am I the only one
In your life?

[Chorus]
Though you've many reasons
To tell me a lie
I can't help believing
That I should be for you
And you for me
The only one

[Outro]
(Ah)
The only one
The only one
Wanna be the only one
The only one (the only one)
The only one (the only one, the only one)
I wanna be, I wanna be
I wanna be, I wanna be
I wanna be, I wanna be
I wanna be, I wanna be
The only one
(Ah)
The only one
