Golden Earring - One Word lyrics

There's a heartache, come over me

Can't be imagination

I worry and I cry for you

Guess I'll have to learn to live with it

A heartache hauntin' me

Feels like electrocution

I'm hurt, you never understood

One word, one word

Who are you, sittin' on your throne

I used to be a slave in your temple

Now you tell me that you're so alone

On the run for your life

One look through the eyes of a stranger

One night in the arms of a fool

One glance down the shaft of a goldmine

Nothin' could be better, nothin' could be better

Do now, do now what you wanna do

Tell a lie now, tell the truth

There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome

So follow your footsteps home

One word, makes all a difference in the world

One word

One is being born

Two is what you're going for

Three is the price you pay

For what you've been lookin' for

And the word is love, love

One look through the eyes of a stranger

One night in the arms of a fool

One glance down the shaft of a goldmine

Nothin' could be better, nothin' could be better

Do now, do now what you wanna do

Tell a lie now, tell the truth

There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome

So follow your footsteps home

One look through the eyes of a stranger

One night in the arms of a fool

One glance down the shaft of a goldmine

Nothin' could be better, nothin' could be better

One word, makes all a difference in the world

Make one hell of a difference in the world

One word, one single word
