You Are the One

I saw you last evening
In a shop on the King's Road
Looking through the window
Just as it was going to close
Our eyes met for an instant
And then you were gone
And all that evening I couldn't
Stop myself from thinking:
"Well oh, were you The One?"

We keep on searching, despite ourselves
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
That someone who will be The One
Are you The One? Are you The One?
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
And a bell will ring
And our hearts will go "Boom!"
And the future will reveal it'self
And we'll never need for no-one else

You sat next to me in the cinema
You walked past me in the snow
I kissed you once by a cigarette machine
As the club was about to close
But each time you looked different:
Your face, your body and your hair
I've collected you in installments
For sometime now over years and years

Yeah, we keep on searching, despite ourselves
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
That someone who will be The One
Are you The One? Are you The One?
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
And a bell will ring
And our hearts will go "Boom!"
And the future will reveal it'self
And we'll never need for no-one no-one else

I don't know who I'm fooling
But I guess it gives me something to do
Something to do, something to do
It's been going on so long now
Well, how am I ever gonna
Know if it's really you? Oh yeah

Oh, we keep on searching, despite ourselves
Thinking we will find somewhere in the world
That someone who will be The One
Are you The One? Are you The One?
Our eyes will meet in a crowded room
And a bell will ring
And our hearts will go "Boom!"
And the future will reveal it'self
And we'll never need for no-one no-one else

No no no no
No no no no
No no no no no no no no-one else
No-one else
