One love in my young life took me somewhere I had never been, And I want to live again, breath again in the shelter of his brightly woven love song. So long I have wanted love to be sitting just this near to me. Now my waiting here is free. Few are the choices we are given, the sand of time pass quickly by. One dream of my young life now stands holding out his hand to me, Now I can't help but believe that my whole life will be spent in one love.
In the notes to the Carpenters: The Compact Disc Collection, Richard Carpenter wrote:
One Love is a song John and I wrote in 1967 while we were employed at Disneyland. Originally called Candy it was written for a waitress in "Coke Corner" who caught all four of our eyes.
