I know you are the one Song Version

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

Who is the male vocalist singing your song? :-) Alexis Login to Reply 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.
