Al Green - Could I Be The One? Lyrics
Could I be the one?
Could I be the one that you're thinking of
My goal is to be the one you're dreaming of
I wanna be your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
Let me be with you through all your hard times
I wanna be around when the chips are down
It'll be me and you, against the opposition
Can't you see our love shinning through?
You've been there to solve all of my problems
You've been there to help me solve them
I don't know what, I don't know what to do
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Could I be the one?)
Trust me with your dreams, I'll make them all come true
For the rest of my life, I'll be grateful to you
Time will pass, our love will last
I'll spend my life cherishing you
(Let me be the one)
Let me be the one in your life at the end of the rainbow
(Let me be the one)
Let me be the one that you love so
Late at night, the time is right
I wanna be the one you say is out of sight
(Let me be the one)
Let me be the one, let you be the girl
(Let me be the one)
Let me be, let me be the one, at the end of the rainbow
Oh, I'll never, never, never let you down
(Let me be the one)
Oh, I've got to be the one, let me be the one, be the one, oh yeah
At the end of the rainbow, I'll never, never, let you down
(Let me be the one, let me be the one)

What I appreciate about Al Green's recordings, especially those recorded with Willie Mitchell, is the way he places such immense, soulful effort into every line, every word and every syllable. He works every syllable quite differently. That takes a lot of thought and a lot of doing. On "Could I Be the One?" the smooth backing singers don't do this and they don't have to but they serve a vital role in contrasting with Al's fabulous delivery. Simply beautiful.
I've always loved and appreciated that contrast. The backing (barbershop style) singers stay "fixed" and allow Al to squeeze and milk out every croon to add such dynamism in this track. It's so refreshing to hear him come in late or early and just make the damn thing work!
...and don't forget the instruments. The continuous strings that start introducing that organ is amazing. Not to mention the subtle brushwork on that snare building up to the fills and flourishes. Amazing.
Yes yes and yes absolutely 💝💝💗💗💗✊💖💙💙💕💚🎊!!!!
