Lyrics:
Ooh-ooh, ooh
You are the candle, love’s the flame
A fire that burns through wind and rain Shine your light on this heart of mine ‘Til the end of timeYou came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin’ like the sun Out of my dreams and into my life You are the one, you are the oneSaid I loved you, but I lied
‘Cause this is more than love I feel inside Said I loved you, but I was wrong ‘Cause love could never ever feel so strong Said I loved you, but I liedWith all my soul I’ve tried in vain
How can mere words my heart explain This taste of heaven so deep, so true I’ve found in youSo many reasons in so many ways
My life has just begun, yeah Need you forever and I need you to stay You are the one, you are the oneSaid I loved you, but I lied
‘Cause this is more than love I feel inside Said I loved you, but I was wrong ‘Cause love could never ever feel so strong I said I loved you, but I liedYou came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin’ like the sunOut of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the oneSaid I loved you, but I lied (said I loved you, but I lied)
‘Cause this is more than love I feel inside (said I loved you, but I lied) Said I loved you, but I was wrong (said I loved you, but I’m wrong) ‘Cause love could never ever feel so strong Said I loved you (said I loved you) ‘Cause this is more than love I feel inside Said I loved you, but I lied
