MELISSA ETHERIDGE LYRICS - When You Find The One

"When You Find The One"



Well I was a slick midwestern gal

On a long hard road into southern cal

Didn't find any crime fillin' up all my time

I had the devil in my bones and an angel on my mind



and I drank up all the movies and I searched for happy endings

I turned love inside out till I was perfectly pretending

still I believed it could be true



that when you find the one

There's no question in the silence

All is said and done when you find the one

when you find the one



Yeah you could say that I was crazy I was that kinda girl

I had to open up a lot of oysters before I found myself a pearl

I had to kiss a lot of frogs to find my grass was green enough

had to be face down in the gutter to see what is and isn't love



Then I woke from all the dreaming to your taste and to your laughter

I cried till I was dry and now live my ever after

I believe I always knew



When you find the one

There's no question in the silence

All is said and done when you find the one

When you find the one



And when you make the choice to believe in your existence

with hello you will know when you find the one



I believe it could be true

yes I believe I always knew

and I believe it could be true

and believe i always knew



when you find the one

There's no question in the silence

All is said and done when you find the one



And when you make the choice to believe in your existence

with hello you will know when you find the one



with hello you will know
