If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
but I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
and I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do i dream of you as my wife?

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life


I don't wanna run away but I can't take it , I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
You know my heart is by your side

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it,
I dont understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way I can stay in your arms?

 

Daniel's Biography: For those who think bedroom recording studios are solely the province of moody indie rockers, meet Daniel Bedingfield. The 22 year-old singer-songwriter, whose first single, "Gotta Get Thru This," has become a chart-breaking, #1 sensation, recorded the majority of his debut album, Gotta Get Thru This, in his bedroom, with the help of one computer and one microphone. "I did most of the recording alone in my bedroom and then tweaked it in the studio," Bedingfield says. "Seriously, I recorded half of that album in my underpants."

From such humble beginnings have sprung a pop triumph, an easy blend of R&B, pop, garage and funk that has planted Bedingfield firmly at the top of the British charts, earned him comparisons to everyone from Craig David to Stevie Wonder, and made "Gotta Get Thru This" a club and car radio staple everywhere from Brixton to Ayia Napa.

Despite the hopeless catchiness of its lead single, Gotta Get Thru This the album is miles removed from most of today's pop music. It may be the perfect record for those who like their pop records to have both grooves and brains. That Gotta Get Thru This succeeds so effortlessly on both counts can be attributed to the tireless artistry of its creator, who doesn't rely on Swedish producers or American hip-hop remixers for inspiration.

Birthing the album was a painstaking process, but Daniel wouldn't have it any other way. "It's very exhausting to do it all," he admits. "I just gotta do everything, from songwriting, to the recording, to playing most of the instruments and designing the videos. It just makes the most sense for me to do it."
