The Stremes - One Word lyrics

The city has gone cold,

Anything that could has been sold,

It's winter in my soul,

Lord knows I have been alone,

Let the rains fall for me,

Won't you please let me find what I seek,

When you speak, I lose my fear of the world,

And all it's sweet talk and the lies that I've heard,

Give me one word from you,

That's all I need and I will get through

The fires have been set,

I can feel the storm blowing in,

It's moving east to west,

I'll sit and wait for it all to begin,

So many roads to dream,

There's still time enough for you and me,

When you speak, I lose my fear of the world,

And all it's sweet talk and the lies that I've heard,

Give me one word from you,

That's all I need and I will get through

I'm standing on the bridge,

I'm watching as the waves hit the shore,

Feels like I'm on the edge,

I didn't think I could take anymore,

And I have just to reach,

Touch the other side and breathe

When you speak, I lose my fear of the world,

And all it's sweet talk and the lies that I've heard,

Give me one word from you,

That's all I need and I will get through
