One in a million Lyrics

Looking

I've been looking so long

Never

But I never did find

The one

The one I sought

One in a million

I never did find, never never never

I never did find, never never never

I never did find one in a million

One in a million, one in a million

No I never did find

Is there one who is meant to be the only one for me?

One in a million

It's just wasted time reckoning the odds

They're in the hands of the gods

And we all know that they're all gone

And left us all alone, all alone

Leaving us responsible for destiny

So, everything I have and do not have is what is due to me

And I don't have you

Who are you?

You're the one

The one in a million

I've known so many people gone so many places

Can still see hear the voices remember the faces

And choices I made in the heat of the chase

They still haunt me now and time can't erase

And I sometimes look back on those passionate days

My restless and yearning libidinous ways

The dance and the drugs and the sex were all fun

They kept me so busy I never discovered

The one who would be everything and much more

Who'd help me unlock all that life held in store

The one who the fates and the stars had decreed

Would provide everything that I want and I need

And fulfill and complete me and fill that great hole

Of alone again me and my solitary soul

But it wasn't for want of the trying that brought

Me older and wiser to now where the search came to nought

And I think I can say I put it behind me

I've given up the search for that one

It took a long hard road but I've come to see

That we're all alone yet we are one

And that sense of wholeness that we all seek hides deep inside

It can't be given by anyone else

Ultimately, it's up to us to do that work on ourselves

Do that work on ourselves

So, every day in every way

And every moment of that day

Can be part of the work of living
