Story Behind The Song

I wrote this song for my uncle's wedding. He got married for in his forties for the first time.

Song Description

Song written from the point of view of someone who has been waiting for that special someone for a long time. They may have spent their whole life dating around, but not really committing to anyone. They finally meet the right person, and they know without a doubt that this person is the only one for them. A perfect wedding song.

Lyrics

You are the one
Written by Nancy Seymour


So many questions, "When will you settle down?
You know that life is short, it quickly fades away?
Will you get yourself together? Will you put off another day?"
The only answer that I'd offer are these words I'm gonna say . . .

I'm waiting for the one, the only one for me
And when we come together, then, my life will be complete
I'm waiting for the one who'll stand by my side
When no one else is there for me, they'll tell me it's alright
I'm waiting for the one
I'm waiting for the one


So many questions, "Where have you been all my life?
Can you see I know that it's been worth the wait?
Can we get ourselves together? We can't put it off another day
Am I making my intentions clear with these words I'm gonna say?

You are the one, the only one for me
And now that we're together, my life is complete
You are the one, you stand by my side
When no one else is there for me, I know I'm still alright
(Cause) You are the one
You are the one

I've waited for the longest time, seemed like eternity
But there is no denying you and I are meant to be

You are the one, the only one for me
And now that we're together, my life is complete
You are the one, you stand by my side
When no one else is there for me, I know I'm still alright
