One Look
Joel Plaskett
Album: Three (2009)
I thought about lea-ving,
I thought about going
I thought about leaping,
but I hung on
My heart was drifting,
away from you
The earth was shifting
un-der my shoes
The world is changing,
outside my door
It s not the same thing
it was be-fore
But one look
was all I had to see
One word
that you could say to me
One light
that you could leave on low
One star
to help me dow-own the road
So many friends,
with hearts to mend
So many branches
to break and bend
I was weav-ing
in the wind
But I withstood
the storm a-gain
Unraveling darkness,
chasing the light
My heart s been traveling
through this night
But one look
was all I had to see
One word
that you could say to me
One love
is all I need to know
One place
that only you can go
One heart
to keep a steady beat
One chance
to leave this lonely street
One light
that you could leave on low
One star
to help me dow-own the road
