One Love (Cheryl Wheeler)

Everywhere I turn Everyone is lost in this thing 'Cause something feels gone Life is nothing like we dreamed it might be And we don't move forward Can't move back We hold our hands out Hoping for that One love that's all of it Deep nights and quiet days Long lovers, old comforts Feel like some ball and chain I guess we're really gettin' old Always worrying we're wasting our time Wantin' somethin' new to hold Some affair would be the perfect crime Long roads crumble Forevers fall apart One day we don't know Why we're so far from One love that's all of it Deep nights and quiet days Long lovers, old comforts Feel like some ball and chain And if I want you and you want me We'll call it love though it might not be Hearts on fire, souls in line Oh, just to know that, just to feel that one more time Seems impossible to know What is real and what is just some restless thing And our hearts learn slow All the miseries bad choices bring So is it wise or lazy Holding tight to what you've known And is it brave or crazy searching for some One love that's all of it Deep nights and quiet days Long lovers, old comforts Feel like some ball and chain One love that's all of it Deep nights and quiet days Long lovers, old comforts Feel like some ball and chain
