Gillian Welch Only One And Only Lyrics

Only One And Only Lyrics

There's a hundred bluebirds

Up above the clouds

Putting all the color in the sky

And twice as many tear drops

there to wash it down 

Every one's another lullaby 

But there's only one and only 

Who could go and leave me lonely 

There's a world of trouble

Trying to take its turn 

I can hear it shaking underground 

And half a dozen lessons

I might never learn 

Not until them troubles come around 

But there's only one and only

Who could go and leave me lonely 

There's a mile of blacktop

Where the road begins

It takes a time or two to recognize 

Growing at the roadside

Scattered by the wind 

Are everybody's unsaid sad goodbyes 

But there's only one and only

Who could go and leave me lonely

You're the only one and only 

Why'd you go and leave me lonely
