"Only One Road" is the fifth single from The Colour of My Love album by Celine Dion. It was released in October 1994 in North America, in May 1995 in the United Kingdom and Australia, and in July 1995 in other European countries.[1]

The black and white music video for the song, directed by Greg Masuak, was released in January 1995.

The single's B-side contained "Calling You" which was released as a single in France, instead of "Only One Road."

The song reached top 10 in the United Kingdom and Ireland, peaking at number 8 in both countries. It was a top 40 hit in Australia (number 23) and the Netherlands (number 40).

"Only One Road" was included later on The Collector's Series, Volume One compilation in 2000 and My Love: Ultimate Essential Collection greatest hits (European edition) in 2008.

The song was covered by Billy Porter and included on the Human Rights Campaign compilation album Love Rocks.
