Lyrics

The Only Thing

A wise man once wrote a song that said,
No matter what, true love will save the day...

There's no one else who can do what you do,
And make me feel like I'm king of your world
And you should know that's how I feel too,
The only thing that makes me tick is you...

And it's you,
Doesn't matter what you say or do,
'Cos it's true, the only thing that matters...is you

We've been through ups and we've been through downs,
But you've stuck by me through and through.
And always told me to do what I do,
And be the very best version of me...

And it's you,
Doesn't matter what you say or do,
'Cos it's true, the only thing that matters...is you

The only word that describes what I feel,
When I look you in your eyes so deeply,
Is a word that's so easily used,
By people who don't feel the depth of love,

That I do,
Doesn't matter what you say or do,
'Cos it's true, the only thing that matters...is you

Always has,
Doesn't matter what you say or do,
It's the truth, the only one I need to love is you....

A wise man once wrote a song that said,
No matter what, true love will save the day...

Great song , shades of Fleetwood Mac . Loved the vocal , which made the track .
