Only One

You're kneeling

Down even as you watch the tide approach your home

Oh

You breathe in

Trapped in a lion's den again

An undertow

Oh

I'm barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

Just barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

A slow dive

Below the surface of the night

Will overflow

Oh

In moonlight

A flaming ember reignites

Then blows out cold

Oh

I'm barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

(Nothing left to run from)

Just barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

I'm barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

Just barely holding on

You were the only one

You were the only one

I can't

Pretend

It's not

The end

Lovers

Then friends

Strangers

Again

I'm barely holding on (I'm holding on)

You were the only one

You were the only one

(Nothing left to run from)

Just barely holding on (Just holding on)

You were the only one

You were the only one
