Rupert Holmes
The One of Us
You're eight thousand miles outside of my sight
As you greet the sun, I face the night
Here we are in cities of steel
On islands in oceans apart
But not the earth, the sky, the sea
Could keep your life from me
We are the one of us and love is our name
One and the same, one voice and one song
And since there’s one of us, one dream and one heart
We're never apart very long
And if just one of us believes what we see
We'll never be untied or undone
I always knew of us when we were two of us
We are the one of us and you are my one
There’s no way to see your side of the sky
From this side of earth, but you and I
Know each other and sight unseen
I see you wherever I go
Neither the land, nor air, nor sea
Could keep your life from me
We are the one of us and love is our name
One and the same, one voice and one song
And since there's one of us, one dream and one heart
We're never apart very long
And if just one of us believes what we see
We'll never be untied or undone
I always knew of us when we were two of us
We are the one of us and you are my one
We are the one of us and love is our name
One and the same, one voice and one song
And since there's one of us, one dream and one heart
We're never apart very long
And if just one of us believes what we see
