Young Dubliners

One and Only Lyrics



Didn't happen over night, its been happening all her

life Can't tell her friends at school. Their remarks

are so cruel.

Why does he treat her so, and does her mother know

Still daddys little girl. All smiles and baby curls



Her bedrooms open wide / there's nowhere she can hide

Her mind leaves like a bird / she only remembers his

words



CHORUS

You told me, you own me

I'll be your one and only

You told me, you own me

I'll be your one and only



Tonight she'll put things right. Tonight she'll end

this fight

Things cannot stay the same. This families gone insane

she'd like to talk to him. Ask him to stop but then

He just looks down and smiles. Gets his strength in

denial



Tonight she'll take the power / tonight's his final

hour

One shot and see him fall / now he can't hurt her

anymore



REPEAT CHORUS



Father says everything will be allright and

Mother says imaginations running wild and

Father says lets keep this thing to ourselves and

Mother says it never happened You know it happened



REPEAT CHORUS
