Huey Lewis and the News - The Only One lyrics

He was always the toughest kid But he never meant no harm But looking back I could see his fate Was tatooed on his arm Walking throught the courtyard Always there to be seen He and little Janie Together they were the king and queen He was the only one, who ever really knew He was the only one, what can we do He was the only one, he always showed us how He was the only one, where is he now Three years later at the bus stop I know I'll never forget He looked smaller and real wasted As he bummed a cigarette And I asked him what he'd been doing And how's little Janie anyway Seems he was drunk They had a fight Janie got hurt and they took him away He was the only one, who ever really knew He was the only one, what can we do He was the only one, he always showed us how He was the only one, where is he now I can still see him standing there Just like yesterday Leaning on a '56 Giving his secrets away Is it any wonder I feel a little lonely He's not just the only one He's the one and only I heard about the accident There's not much left to say He wandered out in the middl of the freeway It must have happened right away And I though about what a shame it was Now that it's all said and done And it may sound strange But even now He's still the only one He was the only one, who ever really knew He was the only one, what can we do He was the only one, he always showed us how He was the only one, where is he now
