eh? redux.

thought it was ambrosia -- it was only ginger ale.
thought i'd get a letter -- only junk was in the mail.
set my sights on hollywood -- only got to omaha,
when i had to slow this car & find this booth & make this call.

cause you're the only one who ever loved me,
and you're the the only one i'll ever love.
my witness is the starry sky above me,
the feelings in my heart are proof enough.

thought it was a diamond -- it was only so much glass.
thought i'd get an offer -- only got another pass.
set my sights on abilene -- only got to witchita,
when i had to slow this car & find this booth & make this call.

cause you're the only one who ever loved me,
and you're the the only one i'll ever love.
my witness is the starry sky above me,
the feelings in my heart are proof enough.

thought i had a blueprint for how i'd live my life.
thought i'd find a rich man, and be a rich man's wife.
but turns out riches aren't weighed in frankinsense & myrhh -
and it's when you aren't watching that miracles occur.

yeah, you're the only one who ever loved me,
and you're the the only one i'll ever love.
my witness is the starry sky above me,
the feelings in my heart are proof enough.
