Lyrics: Diana Ross. Diana Ross (1976). One Love in My Lifetime.

From rags to riches, here I stand
Shaped and molded by your loving hand
With faith and trust unshaken you led me all the way
Through years of joy and tears I'm standing here to say

You're that one love in my lifetime
And if I search this whole wide world, I know I'll never find
A love that's stronger than an oak tree
That will be standing in the sun when my life is done, yeah

A carefree girl, I couldn't see
All the future plans darlin', you made for me
You placed the whole world at my feet
And lit a flame of passion that burns eternally

Love may come and love may go
But you're the man that made me and no one else can change me
You're my Adam and I'm your Eve
And if I live a hundred years 'cause I know there'll only be

One love in my lifetime
Only one love, burning in this heart of mine

You're the one love in my lifetime
And if I live a hundred years I know I'll never find
A love that's stronger than an oak tree
That will be standing in the sun when my life is done

One love in my lifetime
Only one love, burning in this heart of mine

One love, burning in this heart of mine
One love, one love, burning
