"The One Thing"
(Nasri Atweh / Adam Messinger / Shakira)

Every morning when I woke up
I was choked up
I was living without a purpose
Always jumping all the hurdles
Doing circles
In the dark with a broken compass

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
I can't explain the way it feels
I could trip on my own words
I make mistakes, that much is clear
But I made it here, my love
Yeah I made it here, my love

[Chorus:]
You are the one thing that I got right
It's a fickle world, yeah it's a fickle world
You turn the darkness into sun light
I'm a lucky girl, yeah I'm a lucky girl
And if I mess up everything someday
I won't hide my head in shame
'Cause you're the one thing that I got right
Right, right, right

[Refrain:]
One thing I got right
One thing I got right

Every morning when you wake up
I wanna hold you
I just need to be wrapped around you
It's kinda funny when you think that
You just got here
Now I know I can't live without you

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
I can't explain the way it feels
I could choke on my own words
Sometimes it seems like it ain't real
Like you're really here my love
Yeah you're really here my love

[Chorus:]
You are the one thing that I got right
It's a fickle world, yeah it's a fickle world
You turn the darkness into sun light
I'm a lucky girl, yeah I'm a lucky girl
And if I mess up everything someday
I won't hide my head in shame
'Cause you're the one thing that I got right
Right, right, right

[Bridge:]
Every time I see your smile
Every time I hear your laugh
Baby you bring in new sunshine over my way
You are the little dream
I had since I was a child
My fairytale comes true when I look at your face
May not be here forever
But it'll be a long road together
I already know
We're gonna be fine, fine, fine
We're gonna be just fine, fine, fine

[Chorus:]
You are the one thing that I got right
It's a fickle world, yeah it's a fickle world
You turn the darkness into sun light
I'm a lucky girl, yeah I'm a lucky girl
And if I mess up everything someday
I won't hide my head in shame
'Cause you're the one thing that I got right
You're one thing I got right

[Final Chorus]
If I mess up everything someday
I won't hide my head in shame
'Cause you're the one thing that I got right
'Cause you're the one thing that I got right
One thing that I got right
One thing that I got right
