You are the one:
"Du bist der Eine" (for a male)
"Du bist die Eine" (female)
You are the only one:
"Du bist der Einzige" is the phrase used when addressing a male.
"Du bist die Einzige" is the phrase used when addressing a female.
===================================================
Du bist die Eine????????? No, no, no, whilst it is a verbatim translation of each Word it is definitely not something a native German speaker would say.
The correct translation of you are the one is Du bist derjenige/diejenige, e.g.
You are the one (who did it) - Du bist derjenige/diejenige (m/f), (der/die es getan hat)
You are the one (for me) - Du bist derjenige/diejenige (für mich)
The formal form is Sie sind derjenige/diejenige
