Golden Earring - One Word Lyrics

There's a heartache come over me
Can't be imagination
I worry and I cry for you
Guess I'll have to learn to live with it

A heartache hauntin' me
Feels like electrocution
I'm hurt, you never understood
One word, one word

Who are you sittin' on your throne?
I used to be a slave in your temple
Now you tell me that you're so alone
On the run for your life

One look through the eyes of a stranger
One night in the arms of a fool
One glance down the shaft of a goldmine
Nothin' could be better
Nothin' could be better

Do now, do now what you wanna do
Tell a lie now, tell the truth
There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome
So follow your footsteps home

One word, makes all a difference in the world
One word, makes all a difference in the world
(One word, one word)

One is being born
Two is what you're going for
(One word)
Three is the price you pay
For what you've been lookin' for
(One word)
And the word is love, love

One look through the eyes of a stranger
One night in the arms of a fool
One glance down the shaft of a goldmine
Nothin' could be better
Nothin' could be better

Do now, do now what you wanna do
(One word)
Tell a lie now, tell the truth
(One word)

There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome
(One word)
So follow your footsteps home

One look through the eyes of a stranger
(One word)
One night in the arms of a fool
(One word)

One glance down the shaft of a goldmine
(One word)
Nothin' could be better
Nothin' could be better

One word, one word
One word makes all the difference in the world
Make one hell of a difference in the world
One word, one word, one word
One word, one word, one single word
