Lyrics

“Only You (And You Alone)”

Only you can make all this world seem rightOnly you can make the darkness brightOnly you and you aloneCan thrill me like you doAnd fill my heart with love for only youOnly you can make all this change in me
For it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true
My one and only you

Only you can make all this change in me
For it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true
My one and only you

One and only you
