Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been searchin' for a long time
To find someone to be mine
I never thought you'd come along
Now that you're here, all my worries are gone, oh
[Verse 2]
Sweet you
Sweet you
All of my dreams have all come true
[Verse 3]
You're just the one I've been lookin' for
You're just the one I've been lookin' for
[Verse 4]
I didn't know how long it would take
But good things come to those who wait
I can't ask for anything more
You're everything I've been looking for
[Verse 5]
Sweet you
Sweet you
Nobody, nobody, nobody will ever do
[Verse 6]
You're just the one I've been lookin' for
You're just the one I've been lookin' for
[Verse 7]
Nights were dark, days got longer
My mind was weak, but my heart stayed strong
Then you came along and rescued me
Please don't you ever set me free
[Verse 8]
I don't know
Whoa, oh, whoa
[Verse 9]
Sweet you, sweet you
All of my dreams have all come true
Yeah
[Verse 10]
You're just the one I've been lookin' for, baby
You're just the one I've been lookin' for
[Verse 11]
I've been lookin' (You're the one)
I searched all day Monday (You're the one)
And I couldn't find ya (You're the one)
I searched all day Tuesday (You're the one)
And I couldn't find ya (You're the one)
But early Wednesday morning (You're the one)
You know I found ya (You're the one)
And when I found ya (You're the one)
I threw my arms around ya (You're the one)
I said, "Baby, I'm glad" (You're the one)
