about

After we got engaged, I wrote this song for my future husband.

Some fun facts:

At the beginning of the song I had a huge tickle in my throat and was coughing so Bazil says "And that was when Suzie puked" or something like that which cracked me up.

Also, we had run out of 2 inch tape for the demos and so Joel makes a joke about the song "going to acetate" but I don't really catch it because I am so green I don't even know that was an old way of recording songs in the from the 1930s-1950s. At least I think he's making a joke....

lyrics

The One
By Suzie Ungerleider
Published by Stella Records

I have found in your heart that’s deep as snow
A beauty so profound that only God could grow
It speaks to me of what only silence knows
Of what lies beneath the leaves
Where dreams in daylight go

And I won’t let go of your beating breast
Till the world decides that it’s time I rest
And through the night of deepest black
I will walk beside the one who brings the light.

I don’t believe I’ll be leaving for too long
After many years of dreams I’ve awoken to my home
And in your eyes they say you see a soul
And yours they shine so bright it must be ages old.

And I won’t let go of your beating breast
Till the world decides that it’s time I rest
And through the night of deepest black
I will walk beside the one who brings the light.
