"1 Song" lyrics - MATTHEW WEST
[Intro:]
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah
Well I've written a bunch of these
Words, chords, melodies
I picked up my first guitar and I never looked back
Still I search for the perfect verse
Safe to say this ain't my first
But just in case it's my last
[Pre-Chorus:]
I want you to know
This is how it would go
[Chorus 1:]
If I only had one song, I would sing it for You
One last chance to let my words ring true
It'd be a hallelujah, it'd be a thank You, Lord
It'd be an amen, I'm made new
One song, I would sing it for You
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah, You
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah
I could use some King James words
The kind you only hear in church
Make it sound real good, I could impress a lot of people
But if I was down to my last breath
If I had one heartbeat left
I'd keep it short and simple
[Chorus 1:]
If I only had one song, I would sing it for You
One last chance to let my words ring true
It'd be a hallelujah, it'd be a thank You, Lord
It'd be an amen, I'm made new
One song, I would sing it for You
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah, You
Oh yeah-yeah-yeah
[Instrumental]
[Bridge:]
I want You to know
This is how it would go
I'd just tell You "I love You"
[Chorus 2:]
If I only had one song, I would sing it for you
One last chance to let my words ring true
It'd be a hallelujah, it'd be a thank You, Lord
It'd be an amen, I'm made new
One song
If I only had one song, I would sing it for you
One last chance, I want the last thing that I do
To be a hallelujah, be a thank You, Lord
Be an amen, I'm made new
One song, I would sing it for...
[Outro:]
Every song, every line
Every word, every rhyme
I'd sing it for You, I'd sing it for You
Every song, every line
Every word, every time
I'd sing it for You, oh yeah-yeah-yeah
