Jen Cass: Music
One True Thing
Somewhere in some long forgotten other life
I must have been a martyr or a saint
Steeped in tribulation and in sacrifice
Carrying the world without complaint
‘Cause in this life I’ve let you down
And I almost broke your heart
But baby, even the Gods couldn’t tear us apart
I’ve never been the kind to stay through troubled times
Always I’m the first one out the door
Easier to leave and find another love
Than admit this one’s worth fighting for
I spent half my lifetime looking back
When there was nothing there to find
I had to leave it behind
And learn to be satisfied
CHORUS:
I took you to heartI let you inside
Forgave every sin
Swallowed my pride
You never gave up
You stood by my side
You are the one true thing
I always wanted to find
If I never see another morning break
Never watch another sunset blaze
I’ll have known what all of this was worth to me
And I won’t have wasted precious days
‘Cause in your arms I’m so much more
Than I’ll ever be alone
And the love that we’ve found
Is something I’ve never known
REPEAT CHORUS
