You're the One (Schletty, Page, Gomez)

I wrote the melody and lyrics for this song.

For the first version, David Gomez Sanz recorded electric guitar and synths in 2005, set to my original simple lyrics that were written in 1973 while a student at St. John's University (Collegeville, MN).

For the second version, Paul F. Page created a beautiful piano and flute arrangement, set to expanded lyrics that I wrote in 2009.

You're the One (1973-2005 original. Schletty and Gomez-Sanz)

You are mine and I am yours.
I love you. You love me.
I would like to kiss your lips.
Come to me, come to me.

You're the one who can break my heart in two
If you say you won't be forever true.
This I pray, every hour of the day,
That you'll be my dear friend forevermore

You're the One (2009 expanded version, Schletty and Page)

You are mine and I am yours
I love you. You love me

A song outpoured when love was young
Your inmost beauty on my tongue
You and I, we breathe as one
Whispered prayers for dreams to come

You're the one! You're my wife
You're the one! You bring life
This I pray every hour of the day
That our dreams will find their way

Flowers grow in colors bright
Along a path of rocks and light
In Kodachrome or shades of gray
Youthful dreams will come to play

You're the one! You're my wife
You're the one! You bring life
This I pray every hour of the day
That our dreams will find their way

You're the one! All I've ever known
You're the one! Tending what we've sown
This I pray every hour of the day
That our dreams will find their way

You are mine and I am yours
I love you. You love me
