Clare Bowditch - The One lyrics

Sitting in the lobby of a city hotel Drinking like fishes on the river to hell Devil's in my mouth telling primitive jokes While the angel's out looking for a packet of smokes You look into my eyes and you don't look away the way you should I would, I would if I could, oh believe me I would But I gotta go home, I want a home to go to So I'm sorry that I can't be the one I'm so sorry that I can't be the one So it's best I don't say I wanna tear off your clothes And tear off my own and let you know me Instead I nod my head I watch your mouth I smile But I don't say a thing You look into my eyes You seem to see the woman that I hoped to be I wanna go home, I gotta go home Help me get home, I need a home to go to So I'm sorry that I can't be the one I'm so sorry that I can't be the one To give you hope To show you love To let you know To let you love me The way you want to In the next life In the next life Look me up Holy winds blew in when I met you And all my inner bells began to ring What I would not give to just pretend This would not ruin everything I'm so sorry that I can't be the one I'm so sorry that I can't be the one To take you home To show you love To make you whole To let you love me The way you want to In the next life In the next life I'll take you home I'll show you love Like you've never known And you will be in there I'll let you love me The way you want to In the next life In the next life Look me up
