I Wanna Be the Only One Lyrics by Eternal

Greatest Hits

1997

[Intro: BeBe Winans & Easther]
You know I had to come all the way to England to sing with you
Uh-huh
You know? But it was worth the trip
Well, thank you
So, uh, I think we've got something to say
Let's go for it then
Let's go for it?
Uh-huh
Alright, why don't you take the first verse
Okay
Here we go
[Verse 1: Eternal]
Yes, I see you cryin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I feel your broken heart
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I can feel you're hurting
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Still you choose to play the part
[Pre-Chorus: Eternal]
If you let me be (If you let me be)
I'll be all you need, all you need
[Chorus: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
I wanna be the only one to hold you (Protect you from the rain)
I wanna be the only one to soothe you (Erase all the pain)
I wanna be the only one to love you, love you (Over again)
I wanna be the only one, the only one, the (Only one I am)
[Verse 2: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
Now you deserve a mansion (My lord, you too)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You can have the best of life
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
With all this I'll give you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh, a pure love that gold can't buy
[Pre-Chorus: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
If you take a chance (If you take a chance)
I'll be worth the chance, worth the chance, oh
[Chorus: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
I wanna be the only one to hold you (Protect you from the rain)
I wanna be the only one to soothe you (Erase all the pain)
I wanna be the only one to love you, love you (over again)
I wanna be the only one, the only one, the (Only one I am)
I wanna be the only one to hold you (Protect you from the rain)
I wanna be the only one to soothe you (Erase all the pain)
I wanna be the only one to love you, love you (Over again)
Oh, wanna be the only one, the only one (Only one I am)
[Verse 3: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
If you let me be, yeah (If you let me be)
I'll be all you need (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah, yeah
If you take a chance, my love (If you take a chance)
I'll be all that you have (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh my, if you just love me (If you just love me)
You will clearly see I'm all you need, oh
[Bridge: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
Ooh, ooh, yeah
Yeah, I wanna be, I wanna be, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I can feel you're hurting
[Chorus: BeBe Winans & Eternal]
I wanna be the only one to hold you (Protect you from the rain)
I wanna be the only one to soothe you (Erase all the pain)
I wanna be the only one to love you, love you (Over again)
Hey, I wanna be the only one, the only one (Only one I am)
I wanna be the only one to hold you (Protect you from the rain)
I wanna be the only one to soothe you (Erase all the pain)
Yes, I wanna be the only one to love you, love you (Over again)
Hey, I wanna be the only one, the only one (Only one I am)
Hey, I wanna be the only one, the only one (The only one I am)
Oh, I wanna be the only one, the only one, the (The only one I am)
The only one, the only one, the only one, the (The only one I am)
The only one, the only one, the only one, the (The only one I am)
[Outro: BeBe Winans]
Yeah, yeah
Said, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna
Will you let me be?
