i owe you one

there's a chill in the evening air

carries me back to some place where

i thought i'd lost my way forever

every dream and every plan

every last chance slipped through my hand

and you smiled at me and it was over

holding you tonight

hold on tight

i try to say it right

and i guess sometimes the words don't come

and i wish i told you how you changed my life

and saved me with your love

i hope when all is said and done

you know i owe you one

walk me down those streets again

stop me right at the moment when

you stood there talking to a stranger

tell me how you looked at me

and knew the very best that i could be

how did you see this happy ending

standing by your side

i'm still surprised

i try to say it right

but i guess sometimes the words don't come

and i wish i'd told you how you changed my life

and saved me with your love

i hope when all is said and done

you know i owe you one

one for life and one for love

and all you've given me

for the dreams you made me dream again

and all that we can be

holding you tonight

holding you tonight

hold on tight

i try to say it right

i guess sometimes the words don't come

and i wish i'd told you how you changed my life

and saved me with your love

i hope when all is said and done

you know i owe you one
