Can I Be The One

Allen Toussaint

[Verse 1]
Can I be the one?
To hold you tightly
Be with you nightly
Can I be the one?

[Verse 2]
Can I be the one?
To lift you up
When you’re down
When you’re down

[Bridge]
Take my love and wear it for awhile
Take my heart, you can share it for awhile
Take every part of me and if you see that you don’t want it
Just give it back, at least we’ve tried

[Verse 3]
Can I be the one?
To serenade
Your weary head
When it’s not right

[Verse 4]
Can I be the one?
The one that you call on
Day or night
Yeah yeah, it’s alright, yeah

[Bridge]
Take my love and wear it for awhile
I love you, can you share it for awhile?
Take every part of me and if you see that you don’t want it
Just give it back, at least we’ve tried

[Bridge]
I love you, can you wear it for awhile?
I love you, you can share it for awhile
Take every part of me and if you see that you don’t want it
Just give it back, at least we’ve tried
