She can't be caught
They said better man had tried and they all thought
That just like them that I would be turned away
Just another name on a list of dumb mistakes you'd never make
But I had time, And a plan to make you mine
I'd be the man, to show you what it was
To fall in love, but what I didn't realize was

You were the one
Knew the worst, but saw the best
You were the one
My mom and sisters said
You were the One
But I got you and I walked away

But for a time
Everything was you and I
You were the dream
And it woke me to the truth
Showed me all the proof of a love
Worth far to much to lose
But I got lost, in these city lights
And I forgot, the way this city lies about it streets
Chasing them left me incomplete
Too blind to see
You were the one
Knew the worst, but saw the best
You were the one
My mom and sisters said
You were the one
But I got you and I walked away

I know we can't go back
I just hope you know that I have not forgotten anything
I still see you standing there
That ribbon in your hair in a crowd that dissappeared as you kissed me

You were the one
Knew the worst, but saw the best
You were the one
My mom and sisters said
You were the one
But I got you and I walked away
