I've been waiting to meet you
|
I know you're out there somewhere
|
Are you waiting to meet me too?
|
Every morning I start out
|
Maybe today
|
Every night turn my heart out
|
Maybe tomorrow
|
When I wander in dreamtime
|
I feel you come closer
|
Tell me is it the same with you?
|
You stand on a cliff overlooking the ocean
|
Below on the beach
|
I am caught in slow motion
|
And there we're face to face
|
Together again for the first time
|
Face to face
|
You're the one I can love for a lifetime
|
Face to face
|
I can see that it might take a while
|
Face to face
|
To escape from the curve of your smile
|
All alone in a desert
|
I follow some footprints
|
Only hoping they lead to you
|
Always slightly behind you
|
Just out of frame
|
In a hurry to find you
|
Before the dream ends
|
There's confusion and hardship
|
But it never matters
|
'Cause I'm doing it all for you
|
And I know as I search these wide open spaces
|
You wait under a palm tree
|
At the oasis
|
Cancel loneliness
|
Capture happiness
|
Let that heartache and pain go
|
Love feels awful good
|
Like I knew it would
|
All superlatives true
|
Never better now
|
It's forever now
|
Finally over the rainbow
|
I was blind I see
|
Fate was kind to me
|
When it cast me with you
|
