You’re the One for Me Lyrics
[Chorus]
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
[Verse 1]
Just suppose I could love you from the very start, maybe
(Heaven knows) Heaven knows I could show you with an open heart, baby
You're the one that I've been waiting for
In this loneliness forever more
Baby, I know you're the one for me
[Verse 2]
Can it be that you're needing me as I need you, honey?
(Woe is me) Woe is me if we parted, and I never knew, funny, ha
Deep inside my heart I hope and pray
That someday you'll come to me and say
Baby, I know you're the one for me
[Chorus]
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
[Verse 3]
Love is strong, and I'm betting that it will come my way, (Gladly) gladly
If I'm wrong and mistaken, then I'll have to pay, sadly
No other love could ever be the same
If we fail, there's just yourself to blame
Oh baby, I know you're the one for me
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
[Verse 1]
Just suppose I could love you from the very start, maybe
(Heaven knows) Heaven knows I could show you with an open heart, baby
You're the one that I've been waiting for
In this loneliness forever more
Baby, I know you're the one for me
[Verse 2]
Can it be that you're needing me as I need you, honey?
(Woe is me) Woe is me if we parted, and I never knew, funny, ha
Deep inside my heart I hope and pray
That someday you'll come to me and say
Baby, I know you're the one for me
[Chorus]
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
[Verse 3]
Love is strong, and I'm betting that it will come my way, (Gladly) gladly
If I'm wrong and mistaken, then I'll have to pay, sadly
No other love could ever be the same
If we fail, there's just yourself to blame
Oh baby, I know you're the one for me
[Chorus]
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and so lonely
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
You're the one for me, you're the one for me, all of my life, you're the one for me
(Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely)
I'll never have another, you're the one for me, for the rest of my life, you're the one for me
(Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely)
Oh
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and so lonely
Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely
You're the one for me, you're the one for me, all of my life, you're the one for me
(Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely)
I'll never have another, you're the one for me, for the rest of my life, you're the one for me
(Maybe there'll come a time when I won't be sad and lonely)
Oh
