The Only One I've Got

The Only One I’ve Got

My sweet angel you’re my breath
The thing that keeps me keeping on
Life without you would be bereft
I’m sure I’d just as soon be gone

Cause you’re the last thread in my coat
The only one that shares my blood
You’re every song I ever wrote
The only point there ever was
And you’re the only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got right now

How much I love you, it’s not fair
I’m sorry that someone so young
Should have to have such love to bear
I’m sure sometimes it weighs a ton

Cause you’re the last thread in my coat
The only one that shares my blood
You’re every song I ever wrote
The only point there ever was
And you’re the only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got right now

And I really hope that some day
I can call you on the phone
Tell you that I’ve found somebody
To help you carry this load

Until that day, please take care
Go only where the fates allow
Cause sometimes I just get so scared
Cause you’re the only one I’ve got right now
You’re the only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got
The only one I’ve got right now
