Lyrics
[Intro]
I want you, I want you
I want you, I want you
I want you, I want you
Let me introduce myself
Let me introduce myself
Let me introduce myself
[Verse 1]
Looking in your eyes makes me wonder how
I got so much time with you and there's more around
I know all the competition that's after you
So I get to thinking, is this too good to be true
[Pre-Chorus]
That we’re living in a fairytale, no malice, and no lies
Baby ooh, it's hard to believe
That the love you have inside is only mine
That's how I know
[Chorus]
I can't be your only one
No, I can't be your only one
Cause you look twice as good as anyone I ever met
And your love is three times better
How could anyone forget?
No, I can't
I can't be your only one
No, I can't be your only one
Cause you look twice as good as anyone I ever met
And your love is three times better
How could anyone forget?
No, I can't
[Verse 2]
As I'm laying down with you every night
It still gets to me, that you remain by my side
I ain't saying that I'm not deserving of you
But I was dreaming, bigger than I ever knew
[Pre-Chorus]
That I, whilst we’re living in a fairytale, no malice, and no lies
Baby ooh, it's hard to believe
That the love you have give is only mine
That's how I know
[Chorus]
I can't be your only one
No, I can't be your only one
Cause you look twice as good as anyone I ever met
And your love is three times better
How could anyone forget?
No, I can't
I can't be your only one
No, I can't be your only one
Cause you look twice as good as anyone I ever met
And your love is three times better
How could anyone forget?
No, I can't
[Outro]
Only one
Be your only one
Only one
