Lyrics
[Verse 1]
[F]
She waits by the stop sign
Dress clean as rain
Hands in her coat pockets
Heart full of grain
[M]
I buy my bread each morning
Same time, same aisle
Looking for a woman
That can make me stay a while
[F]
He tips his hat, keeps moving
Like he got no clue
The right one’s right beside him
But he’s looking straight through
[Pre-Chorus]
[M]
Day after day
We cross that line
[F]
Mine to your eye
Your eye to mine
[M]
Close enough to touch
[F]
Too proud to say
Both of us lonely
Both of us away
[Chorus]
You’re the one I need
The one I need
I’m the one you need
The one you need
You pass me by
I pass you by
Same old day
Same old sky
You’re the one I need
The one I need
Right in front of me
Right in front of me
[Verse 2]
[M]
I work my hands to leather
She works her prayers to silk
I talk like I’m a drifter
She moves like a glass of milk
[F]
Pure as Sunday water
Soft as porch light glow
Waiting on a good man
Who don’t know what he knows
[M]
I see her laugh with strangers
She sees me on my way
Two hearts at the corner
Learning how to delay
[Pre-Chorus]
[F]
Day after day
We cross that line
[M]
Mine to your eye
Your eye to mine
[F]
Close enough to touch
[M]
Too proud to say
Both of us lonely
Both of us away
[Chorus]
You’re the one I need
The one I need
I’m the one you need
The one you need
You pass me by
I pass you by
Same old day
Same old sky
You’re the one I need
The one I need
Right in front of me
Right in front of me
[Bridge]
[Sax and guitar trade lines]
[M]
If I just turn around
[F]
If I just slow down
[M]
Would you meet my eyes?
[F]
Would you hear me now?
[M]
All this searching
[F]
All this time
[Both]
We were both
On the same damn line
[Final Chorus]
You’re the one I need
The one I need
I’m the one you need
The one you need
No more by and by
No more goodbye
Take my hand
Let it be tonight
You’re the one I need
The one I need
Right in front of me
Right in front of me
