If You're Not The One

This is one of my favorite songs - If You're Not The One by Daniel Bedingfield. One of the songs I can relate with. It is actually one of the "Ifs" I have (big grin). There is also another version of this song, a lady version, by Nikki Gil. But I still prefer the version of Daniel B. The video of Daniel's version is also something "different".

If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call?
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?

I never know what the future brings
But I know you're here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this **much** is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I'm praying you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
You know my heart is by your side

I don’t wanna run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

Yeah, that's a really awesome song. I like it a lot myself but I haven't heard it in awhile. Next stop, Youtube :)

Ben said...

Definitely. And thanks for dropping by mine. I look forward to reading more poetry from you :) It's hard finding people on the blogsphere who have a good appreciation of poetry. The first two things I read on your blog were right up my alley.

Thanks Ben. I was also surprised that there's someone out there who appreciates poetry (and the really surprising part is your a guy. i hope i didn't sound discriminating :-))

I got a number of poems I wrote myself. Just go to the Labels Section of my blog and click Poetry. Some of the poems were written when I was still in college and during my first few years in the corporate world. Kindly take time to read them, and tell me what you think - good and bad comments are welcome :-)

See you!

Right on :) Will do.
