When You Find The One - Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge


Lyrics

Well I was a slick midwestern gal
On a long hard road into southern cal
Didn't find any crime fillin' up all my time
I had the devil in my bones and an angel on my mind

and I drank up all the movies and I searched for happy endings
I turned love inside out till I was perfectly pretending
still I believed it could be true

that when you find the one
There's no question in the silence
All is said and done when you find the one
when you find the one

Yeah you could say that I was crazy I was that kinda girl
I had to open up a lot of oysters before I found myself a pearl
I had to kiss a lot of frogs to find my grass was green enough
had to be face down in the gutter to see what is and isn't love

Then I woke from all the dreaming to your taste and to your laughter
I cried till I was dry and now live my ever after
I believe I always knew

When you find the one
There's no question in the silence
All is said and done when you find the one
When you find the one

And when you make the choice to believe in your existence
with hello you will know when you find the one

I believe it could be true
yes I believe I always knew
and I believe it could be true
and believe i always knew

when you find the one
There's no question in the silence
All is said and done when you find the one

And when you make the choice to believe in your existence
with hello you will know when you find the one

with hello you will know
