You are the candle and love's the flame
A fire that burns through wind and rain
Shine your light on this heart of mine
Till the end of time
You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the one

Said I loved you but I lied
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you but I was wrong
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
Said I loved you but I lied

With all my soul I've tried in vain
How can mere words my heart explain
This taste of heaven so deep so true
I've found in you, oh yeah
So many reasons in so many ways
My life has just begun
Need you forever, I need you to stay
You are the one, you are the one

Said I loved you but I lied
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you but I was wrong
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong
Said I loved you but I lied, oh

You came to me like the dawn through the night
Just shinin', shinin' like the sun
Out of my dreams and into my life
You are the one, you are the one

Said I loved you but I lied (said I loved you but I lied)
'Cause this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you but I was wrong (said I loved you but I'm wrong)
'Cause love could never ever feel so strong

Said I loved you (said I loved you)
But this is more than love I feel inside
Said I loved you, but I lied

    Wow... what an incredible song!!! One of the best love songs of all time in my opinion!!! This is like, the most passionate song i've heard!!! It's beyond love!!! wow. Can't imagine falling that deep into love!! Kinda scary. Anyway, love the tune to this song, the words and his voice - the way he sings it!! Such a smooth song, so romantic and just purely breath-taking.

    You have to be in love so much before you can even come close to understand this song.

    I admit that I love this song. I don't like Bolton so much,but he sings this really good. The words- *sigh*. :) The emotion of "love" just isn't deep enough or strong enough word to encompass all that he feels for his love. ;)
