The One Thing Songtext
von Alphaville

With all the grace that you possess
You′re telling me your lies
A kiss, a touch, a gentle stroke, a look into my eyes
Your promises and fairy tales have all turned into dust
Your star was high, your kingdom grew in vain
Now fades at last

That is the one thing I know
(Stop) stop talking
Stop talking with that voice
(Stop, stop) I can't stand it
When I look into your eyes
(Stop) stop talking
Who do you think you are?
(Stop, stop) you′re too perfect
But this time you've gone too far

How can you be so sure about those tears you're giving me?
Your mysteries and agonies show no effect on me
I can′t believe the love we shared would ever grow so old
Your warm embrace was heaven, but tonight, it feels so cold


That is the one thing I know
(Stop) stop talking
Stop talking with that voice
(Stop, stop) I can′t stand it
When I look into your eyes
(Stop) stop talking
Who do you think you are?
(Stop, stop) you're too perfect
But this time, you′ve gone too far

Stop talking
Stop talking, stop talking

That is the one thing I know
The one thing I know
That is the one thing I know
When I look into your eyes
That is the one thing I know (I can't stand it)
When I look into your eyes (I can′t stand it)
The one thing I know (I can't stand it)
When I look into your eyes (I can′t stand it no more)
That is the one thing I know
