The One
Lucky Dube
It started as a joke
I never thought it would come to this
Today I'm walking in the bushes, like a criminal
Today I', walking so slow, like a predator
Just to get a glimpse of you
As you play in the playground
Your mother spoke to the lawyers
Told them I was not good around you
The lawyers spoke to the judges
Told them I was not good around you
The judges gave your mother a letter
That is keeping me away from you'
Don't worry; you are never far from me
Inside my heart, I keep a little box
It is a box of memories I created about you
You are the one, you are the one
Whenever I miss you bad
I walk around the park
Looking at little boys and girls
They remind me of you
There's a lot of stories I'd like to share with you
There's a lot of games, I'd like to play with you
Tears come down my face
When I think about what happened
The lawyer spoke to the judges
Told them I was not good around you
The judges gave your mother a letter
That is keeping me away from you
Don't worry, you are never far from me
Inside my heart I keep a little box
It is a box of memories I created about you
You are the one, you are the one
You are the one, you are the one
You are the one, you are the one
You are the one, you are the one
