Lyrics Lucky Dube – The One
Text:
It started as a joke
I never thought it would come to this
Today I’m walking in the bushes, like a criminal
Today I’m walking so slow, like a predator
Just to get a glimpse of you
As you play in the playground
Your mother spoke to the lawyers
Told them I was not good around you
The lawyers spoke to the judges
Told them I was not good around you
The judges gave your mother a letter
That is keeping me away from you
Don’t worry, you are never far from me
Inside my heart, I keep a little box
It is the box of memories I created about you
Inside my heart, I keep a little box
It is the box of memories I created about you
As you play in the playground
Your mother spoke to the lawyers
Told them I was not good around you
The lawyers spoke to the judges
Told them I was not good around you
The judges gave your mother a letter
That is keeping me away from you
Don’t worry, you are never far from me
Inside my heart, I keep a little box
It is the box of memories I created about you
Inside my heart, I keep a little box
It is the box of memories I created about you
Chorus ×7:
You are the one, you are the one
Whenever I miss you bad
I walk around the park
Looking at little boys and girls
They remind me of you
There’s a lot of stories I’d like to share with you
There’s a lot of games, I would like to play with you
Tears come down my face
When I think about what happened
The lawyer spoke to the judges
Told them I was not good around you
The judges gave your mother a letter
That is keeping me away from you
Don’t worry, you are never far from me
Inside my heart I keep a little box
It is a box of memories I created about you
Don’t worry, you are never far from me
Inside my heart I keep a little box
It is a box of memories I created about you
Chorus: till fade
You are the one, you are the one
