From the recording Michael V. Ficocelli: A Songwriter's Sampler
First written in 1979 and revised in 1987. Recorded at home, Marci took this simple song to a whole new level with that spectacular portamento moment leading to the climax. We overdubbed her voice to create the background singers and it was magic.
Lyrics
You, you and I
Have been together now for quite some time
And though we have had our share of ups and downs
When there was pain
We've always made it through somehow
So why do you feel
That this time all the hurt won't ever heal
I can understand your down right now
But you're failing to see
Just how much you mean to me 'cause
You, you are the one in my life
I never want to let you go
You, you are the one in my life
And I know that I'll always love you
How could I ever live without you
Think, it's not all that bad
Think of all, all of the good times that we've had
Think of all the sweet love that we've made, baby
Then try to tell me how you
Could ever think our love is through when
You, you are the one in my life
I never want to let you go, no, no, no, no
You, you are the one in my life
And I know that I'll always love you
And I know I want to spend my life with you
You are the one in my life
I never want to let you go, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You are the one in my life
And I know that I'll always love you
And I know I'm never ever gonna you go
I'm never gonna let you go
You are the one in my life
And I know that I'm always gonna love you
And I know that I'm never ever gonna you go
You, you are the one in my life
And I know that I'll always love you
And I know I want to spend my life with you
