One Love Stand Lyrics

-- words by Paul Barrere and Bill Payne
-- music by Bill Payne and Ken Gradney 

It's been a one man show that I been runnin' 
On a two way street for love 
And I see no end to the dead end (dead end) 
'Til you come back home 

I tried everything to keep remembering 
One good woman, one good man 
Two shots of happiness in one life span 
It takes a one good woman 

The only thing that hurts is the memory 
Of having once lived by myself 
And I've tried every kind of woman 
I said woman, put my love out on the shelf 

Took everything and left my ears ringing 
One good woman, one good man 
Two shots of happiness in one life span 
It takes one good woman to make a one love stand 

I feel at home in a foreign land 
Know what's next when there's nothing planned 
Talking about love (Talking about love) 
You know it takes two 

She took everything and left my ears ringing 
One good woman - one 
Two shots of happiness - two 
It takes one good woman 
To make a one love stand 
One good woman
