  • Every morning when I woke up
    I was choked up
    I was living without a purpose
    Always jumping all the hurdles
    Doing circles in the dark with a broken compass

    I can't explain the way it feels
    I could trip on my own words
    I make mistakes, that's much is clear
    But I made it here my love
    Yeah I made it here my love

    You are the one thing that I got right
    It's a big ol' world, yeah, it's a big ol' world
    You turn the darkness into sun light
    I'm a lucky girl, yeah, I'm a lucky girl
    And if mess up everything someday
    I would hide my head in shame
    Cause you're the one thing that I got right

    One thing I got right
    One thing I got right

    Every morning when you wake up
    I wanna hold you
    I just need to be wrapped around you
    It's kinda funny when you think that you just got here
    Now I know I can't live without you

    I can't explain the way it feels
    I could choke my own words
    Sometimes it seems like it ain't real
    Like you're really here my love, yeah, you're really here my love

    You're the one thing that I got right
    It's a big ol' world, yeah, it's a big ol' world
    You turn the darkness into sun light
    I'm a lucky girl, yeah, I'm a lucky girl
    And if mess up everything someday
    I would hide my head in shame
    Cause you're the one thing that I got right

    Every time I see your smile
    Every time I hear your laugh
    Baby you bring in new sunshine over now
    You are the little dream
    Ever since I was a child
    My fairytale comes true when I look at your face
    May not be here forever
    But it'll be a long road together
    I already know
    We're gonna be fine, fine, fine
    We're gonna be just fine, fine, fine

    You are the one thing that I got right
    It's a big ol' world, yeah, it's a big ol' world
    You turn the darkness into sun light
    I'm a lucky girl, yeah, I'm a lucky girl
    And if mess up everything someday
    I won't hide my head in shame
    Cause you're the one thing that I got right

    You're the one thing that I got right
    And if mess up everything someday
    I won't hide my head in shame
    Cause you're the one thing that I got right
    You're the one thing that I got right

    One thing I got right
    One thing I got right Writer/s: ADAM MESSINGER, NASRI ATWEH, SHAKIRA ISABEL MEBARAK RIPOLL
