My One and Only Love

Written by Guy Wood and Robert Mellin in the early 1950s, famously recorded by Frank Sinatra and later by John Coltrane with Johnny Hartman.

The words

A man tells the woman he loves that she is the only one, and describes how she moves him.

This is a straightforward love song, addressed directly to one person and full of quiet wonder at what she means to the singer. It unfolds slowly, more a hushed confession than a declaration. Dylan treats it with restraint, his voice low and close over soft steel guitar and bass, making it one of the most tender moments on the first disc.
