One and Only

( To be sang to the tune of ... " Candle On The Water " ... From the musical , ' Pete's Dragon ' (1977) ... )


I know you are my one and only.
No brighter star than you can shine!
Our love will keep on growing
And all will be knowing
That our bond will stand the test of time.

I know you are my one and only.
From this day forth, our vows we'll live.
We'll get to know each other.
We're so much more than lovers!
And each day, we'll find our ways to give.

Even if storms overwhelm us,
We'll accept this as reality.
And we will overcome the dark times
Fighting til the end,
Soul mates and best friends!

You know that I'm your one and only.
Together is where we belong.
Hand in hand, heart to heart,
Team work from the start,
Solidly, we will carry on
No matter what goes wrong...

No other love's this strong!
No, oh no.
You're my only one.

Thanks Robert. Candle on the water is my favourite song in Pete's Dragon. Such a beautiful melody. :-D
