Lyrics

You were always the one....

I had found love at last
and i hoped we would be
as one for all time

My man, Amen
I was looking for
Oh this man,
just this man, I loved.

In our love, my heart
was light, and song
Now that part's
silent and dark
Now he's gone

Oh yeah, gone

Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
You were always the one...

I had found love at last
and I hoped we would be
as one for all time

Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
You were always the one

My man, Amen
I was looking for
oh this man,
just this man,
I loved

Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
You were always the one

Oh yeah, my love
Oh yeah, my love
you will always be my love.
