The Lemon Twigs - The One Lyrics

Don't wanna be there for you
When you're alone
And need a loving touch
For that would be too much
We saw each other for a moment
But then it was clear
That these eyes, they weren't mine
They fail me all the time

I'm gonna leave you alone
Despite the light that might have shown
Take care

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met
No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I've heard the grass gets greener
The further you go from the tomb
You call your home
But you've got to go alone
The howling wind talked to me
As I rode away
With the nights so close behind
With my dream girl on my mind

I'm gonna have her to hold
Far from the torture days of old
I swear

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met
No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I don't even know what I would say to you
If I could see your face

I'm gonna leave you alone
Despite the light that might have shown
Take care

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met
No one compares to the one that you invented in your head
No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met
No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I don't even know what I would say to you
If I could see your face
