This Was the One Lyrics

It wasn't planned
Taking her hand to cross the street
Was as natural a thing as he'd ever done
He knew, what had begun
This was the one
This was the one
And every day he'd count his blessings as she'd say
That her love was as sure as the setting sun
Never to be undone
This was the one

This was the one
Don't take love for granted
Careful with her heart
Careful to see through the things you start
The road was long
And all the time he was gone
All the long lonely hours forced that girl to run
Oh god, what had he done
This was the one
This was the one
Oh, don't take love for granted
Careful with the heart
Careful to see through the things you start
The road was long
And all the time that he was gone
All those long lonely hours forced that girl to run
Oh god, what had he done
This was the one (x's 4)
