Alicia Keys One Thing lyrics

What's life like on a train?
Nobody there knows your name,
As your decision changed
Do you wish that I came?

I thought you'll pick me up from work,
I waited for your truck for half hour.
I know you said you're gonna, but I never thought you'll leave.

This one thing that was made for us
Chases up, saving us.
I take one thing off everything,
Take that thing over anybody.

Square face and puppy eyes,
Fond mouth that never lied,
Your own man within the sky
Left you a house where they are.

But you went away and dared to try
Find a place at your size,
Too good to finish life here with me.

I couldn't get you to say

Why you wouldn't let me call?

Want to be simple, just ain't
And it shouldn't hurt like it does.

This one thing is made for us,
Won't stay with us, it ain't saving us.
But I'll take one thing over everything
I'll take that thing over anybody.

Baby, oh, now pick me up,
I need a compliment, just a touch from a friend.
I need a gentle word,
I need your company and I'll keep

One thing that was made for us,
Chasing us, saving us.
Take one thing over anything,
I'll take that thing over everybody.
Take one thing over anything,
I'll take that thing over everybody.
