Lyrics

If (Bb)you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad

to day?

If (Bb)you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours

in this way?

If (Bb)you are not mine then why does your heart re turn

my call?

If (Bb)you are not mine would I have the strength to stand

as at all?

I nev er know what the (Eb)fu ture brings but I (F)know you’re here with me (Cm)now.

We’ll make it through and I hope you are the one I (Ebmaj7)share my life with.

I don’t wan na run a way but I can’t take it (Eb)I don’t un der stand,

If I’m not (Cm7)made for you then (Eb)why does my heart tell me that I am.

Is there a ny (F)way that I could (Cm)stay

in your arms?

If

If (Bb)I don’t need you then why am I cry ing on

my bed?

If (Bb)I don't need you then why does your name re sound

in my head?

If (Bb)you’re not for me then why does this dis tance maim

my life?

If (Bb)you’re not for me then why do I dream of you

as my wife?

I nev er know what the (Eb)fu ture brings but I (F)know you’re here with me (Cm)now.

We’ll make it through and I hope you are the one I (Ebmaj7)share my life with.

I don’t wan na run a way but I can’t take it (Eb)I don’t un der stand,

If I’m not (Cm7)made for you then (Eb)why does my heart tell me that I am.

Is there a ny (F)way that I could (Cm)stay

in your arms?

If I don’t know why you’re so far a way, but I (Cm7)know that this much is true,

we’ll make it through, and I hope you are the one I (Eb)share my life with.

And I wish that you could be the (Eb)one I die with.

And I’m pray ing you’re the one I (Eb)build my home with.

I hope (Eb)I love you all my life.

I don’t wan na run a way but I can’t take it (Eb)I don’t un der stand.

If I’m not (Cm)made for you then (Eb)why does my heart tell me that I am.

Is there a ny (F)way that I could (Cm)stay

in your arms

’Cause I (Gm)miss you

(Eb)bod y and soul so strong that it takes my breath a way.

And I breathe you

(Eb)in to my heart and pray for the strength to stand to day.

’Cause I love you,

(Eb)whe ther it’s wrong or right, and though I can’t (Bb)be with you to night you know my heart is by your (Bb)side.

I don’t wan na run a way but I can’t take it, (Eb)I don’t un der stand.

If I’m not (Cm)made for you then (Eb)why does my heart tell me that I am?

Is there a ny (F)way that I could (Cm7)stay

in your arms?

About “If You're Not The One

Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "If You're Not The One"?
Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature C. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
What key is "If You're Not The One" by Daniel Bedingfield played in?
If You're Not The One is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
What's the tempo (BPM) of "If You're Not The One"?
The arrangement plays at 120 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.

Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "If You're Not The One" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature C, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
Yes — slow the tempo from 120 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
Why can I click a note in the score?
Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
