Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Only you, you, you
Only you, you, you
[Verse 2]
I remember in the schoolyard
The children didn't understand
So they bullied me with silence
Just for being who I am
[Verse 3]
So I got good at keeping secrets
I used to blend in with the crowd
But on the inside, I was screaming
With you, I didn't have to hide
[Verse 4]
Only you
Could see that I was hurting
Only you
Ever cared to understand
Always know
That I'd do the same
I'd do anything for you, my friend
It's true
[Verse 5]
I used to stare up at the ceiling
Wide awake all through the night
While the world was busy sleeping
I was so caught up in my mind
[Verse 6]
Only you
Could see that I was hurting
Only you
Ever cared to understand
Always know
That I'd do the same
I'd do anything for you, my friend
It's true
So true
[Verse 7]
Oh, when I'm all alone
A million miles away from home
You're still with me
You'll always be
My rock and shoulder to lean on
When every hope I have is gone
I'll turn to you
You know it's true
[Verse 8]
Only you
Could see that I was hurting
Only you
Ever cared to understand
Always know
That I'd do the same
I'd do anything for you, my friend
It's true
So true
[Verse 9]
And I know
Till the bitter end
I'll be proud to call you my best friend
It's true
[Verse 10]
Only you, you, you
