You're Still the Only One

You're Still the Only One - Frances Black

Morning brings another day

To chase the nightime ghosts away

Ghosts that fill these empty rooms

Where children used to play

But children grow and move away

They visit on the holidays

I live my life from day to day without you

And you're still the only one

The only one I've ever loved

A flame lit so long ago

Is still burning in my heart

A picture fades with every year

But my memories are crystal clear

The island and the family

It all seems like yesterday

We had so many plans back then

We'd be together to the end

But fate it played a deadly hand

And left me on my own

And you're still the only one

The only one I've ever loved

A flame lit so long ago

Is still burning in my heart

Someone told me time would heal the pain

Someone said to try and start again

Someone said god only takes the best

This broken heart says please take someone else

Everyday I pray for you

Remembering the things we'd do

A morning waltz on kitchen tiles

Before the children go to school

You willed my everyday with love

So many things I'm grateful of

If you were here you'd wipe my tears away

And you're still the only one

The only one I've ever loved

A flame lit so long ago

Is still burning in my heart

At night as I lay me down

With memories of you and me

I can't help but question why

God has taken you away from me

I can't help but question why

God has taken you away from me
