YOU’RE STILL THE ONE BY SHANIA TWAIN

LYRICS

When I first saw you, I saw love
And the first time you touched me, I felt love
And after all this time
You’re still the one I love, mmm, yeah
Looks like we made it
Look how far we’ve come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we’d get there someday
They said, “I bet they’ll never make it”
But just look at us holding on
We’re still together still going strong
You’re still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You’re still the one I want for life
(You’re still the one)
You’re still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You’re still the one I kiss good night
Ain’t nothin’ better
We beat the odds together
I’m glad we didn’t listen
Look at what we would be missin’
They said, I bet they’ll never make it
But just look at us holding on
We’re still together, still going strong
You’re still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You’re still the one I want for life
(You’re still the one)
You’re still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You’re still the one I kiss goodnight
You’re still the one
Yeah (you’re still the one)
You’re still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You’re still the one I want for life
(You’re still the one)
You’re still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You’re still the one I kiss goodnight
I’m so glad we made it
Look how far we’ve come my baby

  1. An Ode to an Ode

    I wish I knew where it went wrong
    This song is a lie
    I tell myself
    to keep warm.
    You cheated, you lied
    You made a mockery of our
    love
    Shared in a twin-bed,
    producing a boy-child.

    They said it would never last
    I did not know
    That a viper’s tooth
    was hidden in your
    kiss.

    Lies, lies
    The bitter taste of truth
    stuck in my
    mouth
    twisting my
    smile with whisky and razor blades.

    You will always be the one
    The one
    The one
    The one
    The one.

    Fooled.
    Raise a glass,
    for this ode
    captured in amber,
    forever young,
    A fresh and beautiful lie to behold.

  2. My Danny, Danny dear is still the one.
    He believed in me
    when others caged my free.
    Five years now dear.
    And I we have nothing to fear.
    And they said it wouldn’t last.
    But with your common sense
    And my book learning
    We’ll keep the tongues burning
    That question our love.

  3. Dionysus’s Madrigal

    Madrigals create me
    as my words speak to you
    reveling twin flames
    we knew we were one.

    Fires in the street took you
    you saved me anyway
    crazy daylight silences
    whispered voices calmed.

    Dionysus dreamt of us
    jazzed we played our nights
    dawn bemused woke us
    you own me; you’re mine.

  4. Rhapsody of dappling light
    in a world gone mad
    you’re still the flame
    rekindle in rage
    of my dumbfounded days..

    Halcyon nights musing
    On horizons glow
    naked thoughts bewildered
    in your warm kisses flow
    begets the best of me.

  5. I would never belong.
    To him, her, them, me.
    I couldnt connect
    When would you see?
    Relegated to the background
    I felt alone, aloof
    The proverbial wallflower
    Was my only truth
    But you tried so hard
    To break down my walls
    To make me feel loved
    To make me walk tall
    & slowly but surely
    You made me believe
    You gave my loneliness
    A welcome reprieve
    & now I belong
    But only to you
    As I kiss you forever
    Can you feel it too

  6. FOREVER
    In the embers
    of what i thought was
    lost i dance to the
    drama of our first meet.

    It wasn’t love at first
    but the sizzling sight made
    it something to love
    and cherish even when people hide.

    We’ve broken rules made by men
    but there rules seem to seize so
    beautiful feel i feel for thee-
    You’re still the one.
