This song has been one of my favorites for 35 years. It strikes me that it doesn't have to be a love song to "Only One" person, but a love song to every friend, every relative, every work associate, every church brother or sister, every person in your circle.
Most people, if they're not psychologically damaged, understand that our capacity to love stretches and grows. We're not given a fixed amount of love to apportion to partner or child or parent or pets; we add more space in our hearts as we grow into relationships. We love our dad with all our hearts, and we love our partner with all our hearts, and we love our dog or cat with all our hearts. It's not a lie or exaggeration to love a few or love many, with fullness of commitment, emotion, friendship, loyalty, and passion.
Everyone, because of their individual qualities or quirks, can be your "only one" if you're willing to open your heart.
