One for One

If I hadn't grown with you and if half my life had been spent

When we came together, would it be diff'rent?

Are there any more like you though I know that I've asked before

I'm sure there're quite a few like me, why should I be diff'rent?

Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told?

So hard to tell truth from lies with young eyes of innocence

The glass slipper, the prince's kiss, they make no diff'rence

I thought I knew what I knew, I thought that I knew what they meant

So, so soon too late I realize, a meaning so diff'rent

Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told?

The highway ends at the iron fence where the diesel trucks march by

The sounds of living can make no sense when they make no difference

Wooden boxes cause a throne, the hollow faces beneath the stone

And all the blank ones on their way home, I see no diffr'nce

Is it true that there's just one for one like I've been told?
