The One

You're the one.
I love having fun with you.
Matching my espresso to
Your cappuccino.
You're no longer
The one.
In my fun zone.
Serious stuff.
Life makes me laugh.
How it turns me on
Thumbs up
Here you are
YOU are the one.
You flip yours down.
No more babes.
Our time
Has come and gone.

So I am following you
Down the boulevard
Of not meant-to-be
Your hair like a steely
Helmet
A warrior's walk
You know your way
But I just lost mine again
Following you
Down yesterday's bylanes.

You are not the one
There's no one.
Who can match
Let me start again
From scratch.

Tearless fearless
No regrets
Je suis contente
I'm the One.
