[Intro] One, two—almost there [Verse 1] You draw a box around the song Then color every corner gold The first good line comes walking in You call it back before it’s told [Chorus] Here comes the one, here comes the one The one we’ll sing until it’s done But every time the hook takes hold You start again before it’s told Here comes the one—wait, here it comes Forty choruses, not one verse sung [Verse 2] You stack the matches in a row Each little spark deserves a crown The page is full of perfect starts The ending never makes it down [Chorus] Here comes the one, here comes the one The one we’ll sing until it’s done But every time the hook takes hold You start again before it’s told Here comes the one—wait, here it comes Forty choruses, not one verse sung [Outro] One, two—almost there
