My One and Only

This song can be heard here: http://www.karaandsteven.com/
The words are adapted from a letter that Kara Odom Walker wrote to her husband Steven, and then sent to me for adaptation, specifically for this project.

We've been on an amazing journey
The path has not been straight
Remembering one another
It had to be more than fate

Though we parted, somehow I'd see you
Or hear about you from a friend
Only God could have planned it
When our paths crossed again

    I was the shy, suburban girl
    You were the bright-lights city boy
    Now it's you and me against the world
    You are my one,
    You are my one,
    My one and only.

I realize how hard you strive
I know you would die for me
I respect how you work to provide
For our family

    I was the shy, suburban girl
    You were the bright-lights city boy
    Now it's you and me against the world
    You are my one,
    You are my one,
    My one and only.

          So when life brought you to me again
          After all these years, you finally said,
          "Just be patient; you've always been mine."
          You wiped the tears away and made it happen this time.

    I was the shy, suburban girl
    You were the bright-lights city boy
    Now it's you and me against the world
    You are my one,
    You are my one,
    My one and only.
