[Verse 1]
Watching you walk down the aisle was all I would ever need to let you go
But wishing it was me, not him, was a lot of thinking and a little late, I know
'Cause you look perfect in your dress, he held your hand and I held my heart
Know it's over now, I guess my dear, but if I could I'd go back to the start

[Chorus]
You were the one
You were like no other and we fell in love
And I worshipped at your altar
But times they change, you needed more
'Cause the battle was won, when I lost the war

[Verse 2]
Still remember your letters, pictures, phone calls and staying up past four
Meeting every summer sing and dance to the music we adore
Endless days in a love filled haze
We too young, we knew this could never last
Like an epitaph upon my heart you left your mark as gently as you passed

[Chorus]
You were the one
You were like no other and we fell in love
And I worshipped at your altar
But times they change, you needed more
'Cause the battle was won, when I lost the war
