You May Be The One Lyrics
You may be the one, but you'll never be the one
You think you understand, but you don't understand
You may be my love, but you'll never be my love
You may take my hand, you who demand so much
And then, there was the kiss, right out there in the universe
How did that happen?
No, it could not have been worse
You forgot yourself, it could not have been worse
It broke my heart, broke my heart
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child
You may have the question, but you'll never answer to me
You may have the goodness, somewhere, but you'll never let me see
You may be the righteous one, but it won't be right for me
How it's lasted so long...it's a mystery to me
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child
You may cry the tears, but the tears aren't really for me
You may say it's taken years, years of regret and pain
Forget-me-not, says I'm so afraid
It says, there's no fear in your eyes, tell me another lie
I hear the islands calling, I hear angry words
Flying across the ocean like some seabirds, never stopping
I feel my blood racing, can't believe what you are saying
I used to love you so much
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child
And we were...magic
You think you understand, but you don't understand
You may be my love, but you'll never be my love
You may take my hand, you who demand so much
How did that happen?
No, it could not have been worse
You forgot yourself, it could not have been worse
It broke my heart, broke my heart
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child
You may have the goodness, somewhere, but you'll never let me see
You may be the righteous one, but it won't be right for me
How it's lasted so long...it's a mystery to me
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child
You may say it's taken years, years of regret and pain
Forget-me-not, says I'm so afraid
It says, there's no fear in your eyes, tell me another lie
Flying across the ocean like some seabirds, never stopping
I feel my blood racing, can't believe what you are saying
I used to love you so much
I used to dream that you were an angel
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
I used to love you, see the light inside of you
I used to dream that you were an angel
You were an angel, and I was a starving child

Pretty obvious meaning, about somebody who she was once in love with and then things changed. She is looking back on their relationship, reflecting on the good times and the bad, and coming to terms with the fact that they won't be together anymore. She used to dream that they were an angel, but now that is not the case.
Simple song but one of the best on the latest album.
