Adele, sing to me!

I thought I would take the time to express my love for the singer/songwriter Adele.  I've been a fan for a while.  Her first album, 19, I played continuously for at least two months.. much to the dismay of the girls I lived with.  She came out with a new album last week, and I've rediscovered my obsession with her music.  She has an amazing voice, it's smooth and relaxing.  She writes all of her own music, which is unbelievable and very rare.  This last album was all about her relationship and break up with one guy.  I like all of the songs, but my favorite is "One and Only," and the lyrics are below.  
 You've been on my mind,
I grow fonder every day,
Lose myself in time,
Just thinking of your face,
God only knows why it's taken me so long to let me doubts go,
You're the only one that I want.
-
I don't know why I'm scared,
I've been here before,
Every feeling, every word,
I've imagined it all,
You'll never know if you never try,
To forgive your past and simply be mine.
I dare you to let me be your one and only,
Promise I'm worth it,
To hold in your arms,
Some come on and give me a chance,
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile,
Until the end starts.
-
If I've been on your mind,
You hang on every word I say,
Lose yourself in time,
At the mention of my name,
Will I ever know how it feels to hold you close,
And have you tell me whichever road I choose, you'll go?
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart,
I know it ain't easy giving up your heart,
No body's perfect, 
Trust me I've learned it,
No body's perfect,
Trust me I've learned it.
-
So I dare you to let me be your one and only,
I promise I'm worth it,
To hold in your arms,
So come on and give me a chance,
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile,
Until the end starts.
Come on and give me a chance,
To prove I am the one who can walk that mile,
Until the end starts.

Have a great weekend everyone!
