The Only One Songtext
von Tracy Chapman

She was the only one
Of my flesh and blood
Now I have no calling
I can do no worldly good

Hm, hm, mm-mm
Hm, hm, mm (hm-mm-mm, mm)

I sit silent, I sit mourning
Sit listless all the day
Mostly lost the voice to speak
And any words to say except
Does heaven have enough angels yet?

Hm, hm, mm-mm
Mm, hm
(Mm-mm-mm)


I′ve gone hard and I've gone cold
Can′t make the pieces of this cracked life fit
Please forgive me for wanting to know
Does heaven have enough angels yet?

Mm, hm, mm-mm (mm, mm, mm)
Mm, hm (mm-mm)

Together, oh, together
No, there'll be no more of that
But I would not dare for myself to ask
Does heaven have enough angels yet?

Mm, hm, mm-mm
Mm, hm, mm (mm-mm, hm, mm)
(Hm-mm, mm-mm-mm)

She was the only one
Of my own flesh and blood
Sometimes I hear her calling
Straight from the house of god

Mm, mm-hm, mm-mm
Mm, hm (mm-mm, mm)
