Analysis of R u the one

Eric St. Cyr 1985 (El Paso)



Are you the one I see…
Are you the one for me…
Are you the one to let me in…
Are you the one to lead me from sin…
Are you the one to love…
Are you the one sent from above…
Are you the one I waited for…
Are you the one who wants more…
Are you the one that won’t settle for less…
Are you the one who is the best…
Are you the one who said yes to all…
Are you the one that will not stall…
Are you the one for my heart…
Are you the one from the very start…
