lyrics

I see a new face everyday (pretty and ugly), they say "Hey!" But they still aren't you. I see girls smiling' at me — even guys occasionally — but they're still not you. Mystery woman, reveal yourself. I'm a vegetable sitting on the shelf waiting to be picked by you. Just waiting here in the same spot. So hurry up before I rot! Then I won't be good enough for you.

You're the one I'm waiting for — even if we haven't met before. Our fairy tale is just folklore, but I still want it to be more. I imagine stealing you away. Riding to the sun at the end of the day. We'll be together forever — I pray. If there's a will, then there's a way.

People tell me I'm quite the catch, but I just have to tell them, "Next." 'Cause they just aren't you. People ask what's wrong with me, there are so many fish out in the sea. But only one is you.
I'm the fisherman, you're the fish. Cast out my line and make a wish that I will reel in you. And when i get you to the shore, you're the only one I will adore, 'cause I finally caught you.

I know. I should leave it to fate. But I'm impatient and hate to wait, so I'll go out to find you. I'm a bird making a "CAW!" Screaming for you till my voice is raw, but it still hasn't been heard by you.

I don't want to give up but I feel like I'm out of luck. Why haven't I found you? So I'll just wait here 'till that day when you will find me in the end. Then I'll finally be with...

//

Only you can make this world seem right. Only you can make the darkness bright. Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do. And fill my heart with love for only you.

Only you can make 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.
