I Know You Are the One Song Version

Listen to poem:

I know you are the one Song Version Vs 1 It's hard to believe...that day the day you came to me... I hope you'll always stay... Vs 2 You brought me to life again... did the impossible... Don't want this feeling to end Chorus A smile appears when you are near me... the future now I see so clearly... I know you are the one... I know you are the one... So take my hand, let's walk together... travel the pathway to forever... I know you are the one... I know you are the one...for me Vs 3 Stay with me... let's dream this life together there's just one thing I'm sure of vs 2 repeat You brought me to life again... did the impossible... Don't want this feeling to end Chorus A smile appears when you are near me... the future now I see so clearly... I know you are the one... I know you are the one... So take my hand, let's walk together... travel the pathway to forever... I know you are the one... I know you are the one...for me Vs 1 It's hard to believe...that day the day you came to me... I hope you'll always stay... (repeat refrain) I know you are the one... I know you are the one...for me I know you are the one... I know you are the one...for me repeat and fade John Derek Hamilton December 14,2020 revised with music and vocal added September 14,2021

Congratulations on your well-deserved POTW. The lyrics are beautiful and emotional. I can imagine how great the song, with melody and effect of repeating "I know you are the one" would be! Best wishes ~ Mala

Ah, John, my dear and talented friend.. the sentimental lyrics, the vocals and the music are all so very beautiful. The melody of "I know you are the one... you are the one... for me" has me hooked! A gorgeous song and a Fav! It has the emotional/musical connection of a James Ingram or Brian McKnight song. Congratulations for your well-deserved honor of POTW. Such a grand and worthy choice! Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan

Sorry just saw this, yeah quite the coincidence. I didn't know James Ingram died, sad he was an 80's fave. Thanks for your generous words you are so kind!

Susan Ashley
Date: 9/22/2021 4:41:00 PM

Indeed, it is a dilemma, my friend.. isn't it a coincidence that you are trying to pitch the song to Brian McKnight and he’s the very same male vocalist I had in mind when listening to your song.. other than the late and so very great James Ingram. Brian McKnight's soulful vocals would take this tender song to beyond heaven. I'm sooo happy for you to receive your first POTW, John.. although with your brilliant work here it should have happened sooner and more often, in my humble opinion..

John Hamilton
Date: 9/22/2021 9:43:00 AM

Thanks Susan, I am thrilled you like it enough to fave it, this is the first POTW for me so I'm grateful for the recognition. funny you mention Brian McNight I am trying to pitch the song to him, and also Dan Hill, but they're not recording much these days, so it's a dilemma because the young modern vocalist look for something different!

Back with congrats, John, on poem of the week. A hit song this could be--hope you pursue.

John Hamilton

Thanks Vijay, I am pursuing a decent vocalist, success depends so much on the popularity of the singer, so I'm not too high on the chance of success.

John, absolutely beautiful lyrics and music and I love the sound of your voice. I have tears because it reminded me so much of my true love who died in a car crash. We had that kind of love and we were going to be forever, but God had another destiny for him. This a FAV for me because I want to listen to it over and over ~ peace and harmony _Constance

WoW! John, It’s so good to see you posting again. Your song is so romantic and well written. I enjoyed it from start to finish. I’m going to listen to it again. Who is the male vocalist singing your song? :-) Alexis

Alexis Y.
Date: 9/17/2021 1:21:00 PM

Hi John, You're right I never heard of him before. I was hoping you would say, it was you singing. Do you sing? I know you are an outstanding song writer:-) Alexis

John Hamilton
Date: 9/15/2021 4:29:00 PM

Thanks Lexi, I'm glad you came by and liked the song, the vocalist is practically unknown so you wouldn't know him, he's the one who composed the music as well. We are still looking for a proper vocalist to record this demo. His name is Vadim.
