Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ooh-hoo, ooh-hoo
You are the candle, love's the flame
A fire that burns through wind and rain
Shine your light on this heart of mine
Till the end of time
[Verse 2]
You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the one
[Verse 3]
Said I loved you...but I lied
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you, but I was wrong
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
Said I loved you...but I lied
[Verse 4]
With all my soul, I've tried in vain
How can mere words, my heart explain?
This taste of Heaven, so deep, so true
I found you
[Verse 5]
So many reasons and so many ways
My life has just begun, yeah
Need you forever
Well, I need you to stay
You are the one, you are the one
[Verse 6]
Said I loved you...but I lied
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you, but I was wrong
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
I said I loved you...but I lied
[Verse 7]
You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the one
[Verse 8]
Said I loved you...but I lied
(Said I loved you...but I lied)
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
(Said I loved you...but I lied)
Said I loved you, but I was wrong
(Said I loved you, but I was wrong)
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
[Verse 9]
Said I loved you
(Said I loved you)
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you...but I lied
