Lyrics Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Only One

I don't know why you cry

You must have a windswept eye

They're the same old tears

You've worn for years

So they suit you better than I

I don't know why you cry

The tears are a strange device

They roll like dice

They're cold like ice

And they suit you better than I

You don't want me

But you need me

You don't have to

But you should do

'Cos I may be the only one

(in the world)

Yeah I may be the only one

(in the world)

Oh I may be the only one

(in the land)

Yeah I may be the only one

(who understands you, yeah)

So if you're feeling lonesome today

Honey, don't you dare to push me away

'Cos I may be the only one

(in the land)

Yeah I may be the only one

Who understands you, yeah

I'll take you for a ride

To see you from inside

The outlook's bleak

But when I speak

I'll see a change in your tide

I don't know why you cry

But honey make it mine

'Cos up my sleeve, I do believe

I'll change those tears into wine

You can't see wood for all the trees

For you I'm good, permission, please

To be your girl, to hold you tight

To rock your world, you know I'm right

So come on baby, you better make a move

I won't wait forever, what have you got to lose?
