The Only One

You tell yourself the time has come

To wonder if you've got much longer

Holding on for something more

But never feeling any closer

On and on it seems to go

One way down a wrong way road

While all this time you spend, it seems

Is wasted away

Fighting the weight meant to replace

Wanting to live a life that's made for yesterday

And while your mistakes are finding their place

The moment you realize what makes it worth the wait

Is when you stop and find you're the only one

Left between the shore

And every sin that got you nowhere

Hoping all you had in store

Will somehow lead to where you're going

On this cloud you've seen before

But echoing from down below

Are all the nights you spent beneath

Chasing the waves

Fighting the weight meant to replace

Wanting to live a life that's made for yesterday

And while your mistakes are finding their place

The moment you realize what makes it worth the wait

Is when you stop and find you're the only one

Fighting the weight meant to replace

Wanting to live a life that's made for yesterday

And while your mistakes are finding their place

That's when you realize what makes it worth the wait

Is when you stop, yeah

It's when you stop, yeah

And look inside, yeah

And you find you're the only one, yeah
