I’ve been staring at the sky tonight
Marvelling and passing time
Wondering what to do with daylight
Until I can make You mine
You are the One I want, You are the One I want

I’ve been thinking of changing my mind
(It never stays the same for long)
But of all the things I know for sure
You’re the only certain One
You are the One I want, You are the One I want

I’ve been counting up all my wrongs
One sorry for each star
See, I’d apologise my way to You
If the heavens stretched that far
You are the One I want, You are the One I want

I won’t find what I am looking for
If I only “see” by keeping score
‘Cos I know now You are so much more than arithmetic

‘Cos if I add, if I subtract
If I give it all, try to take some back
I’ve forgotten the freedom that comes from the fact
That You are the Sum
So You are the One
I want

When the years are showing on my face
And my strongest days are gone
When my heart and flesh depart this place
From a life that sung Your song

You’ll still be the One I want
You’ll still be the One I want
You’ll still be the One I want
You’ll still be the One I want
