553 You Are the One [01 August 2003]

You are the one
who makes me feel like I am changing.
You are the one
whose heart belongs to mine.

I cannot feel this pain without you near.
The exquisite torture beating down upon my soul.
My body aches for you
with every drop of blood within.

You are the one
who lets me breathe.
You are the one,
the terrible secret to my life.

If I could spend my days with you,
I believe that I might be free.
From the solitude I live
that invades every corner of my mind.

You are the one,
the sweetest love I will ever know.
Too beautiful to last,
you are the one.

My love for you
will conquer only time itself,
for it shall dissipate
in the realm of the real,

You are the one,
the destiny that awaits me.
You are the one,
the road I can never walk.

You are the one
who gave me music so I could dance,
who gave me wings so I could fly.
You are the one.
