One True Love Lyrics


All above me the stars are bright
And a sweet suburban breeze is blowin'
And down the block are the parkin' lights
Of a hundred friends who I barely know and
Don't know me, don't know me
None of them know me
And all through the party I want to leave
All alone with one true love
I could be happy if only I could be
In the dark with one true love
And in the middle of everyone
I still find myself with my thoughts alone
And in the middle of all the noise
Look around myself at the shinin' toys that
I don't need, I don't need
I don't really need
And all through the party I want to leave
All alone with one true love

All of the lights are shinin' on me
But all I want is one true love
In this world I can see
Many billions waitin' in the sun
So I'd love to believe
There'd be one of us for everyone
One of us for everyone
Enough to go around
But that's not what I've found
And all through the party I want to leave
All alone with one true love
All of the lights are shinin' on me
But all I want is one true love
All of my life I've just wanted to be
In the dark with one true love
Every day and night to be
Oh with one true love
With one true love
With one true love
With one true love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Semisonic is a power pop/alt rock band formed in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. Band members are Dan Wilson (guitar/vocals), John Munson (bass), and Jacob Slichter (drums).

After the breakup of Trip Shakespeare, Dan Wilson and John Munson joined up with drummer Jacob "Jake" Slichter to form Semisonic in 1995. An EP, Pleasure, was released that year and the studio full-length Great Divide in 1996 on MCA.

Semisonic's breakthrough came two years later in 1998 when their sophomore effort, Feeling Strangely Fine, reached the Top 50 chart on the strength of the hit single "Closing Time".

Their international career also blossomed when another song from the album, "Secret Smile," quickly became a UK radio favourite in the summer of 1999, eventually peaking at #13 on the official UK Singles Chart.

In early 2001, the band released its third album, All About Chemistry. The single "Chemistry" was a mainstay overseas; however, the album didn't fare as well in the United States. Another song, "Over My Head," was used in the 2001 teen movie Summer Catch, and Semisonic rode the wave of various tours in and around the UK. In the fall of 2001, Semisonic contributed their cover of the Wings classic, "Jet," for the Paul McCartney tribute CD, Listen to What the Man Said.

Semisonic has been on hiatus since 2001. Band members have since pursued other projects, such as Slichter's writing career and Wilson's solo recordings They performed for the first time in years on July 14, 2006 for the Minneapolis Aquatennial. They have also been spotted performing for private parties in basements.
