lyrics

EVER SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL
I’VE BEEN WAITING
WAITING
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU

SEARCHING IN THE SUNLIGHT ON THE TREES
THE BUBBLING STREAM
INSIDE MY HEAD
AM I INSANE

AND THOUGH WORDS COULD NEVER SHOW
STILL I WANTED YOU TO KNOW
THAT YOUR PRESENCE
IS REALLY SOMETHING IN MY LIFE

AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN
THE PATH IS LEADING ME WITHIN
STILL YOUR SMILE
IS LIKE A LIGHT ALONG THE WAY

TIME LIKE CRYSTALS MELTING ON THE SAND
IT’S NO MATTER
I KNEW YOU’D COME
I NEVER LISTENED TO ANY OF THEM

AND WHEN YOU WALKED IN THAT DOOR
JUST LIKE I’D SEEN SO MANY TIMES BEFORE
I JUST DIED

AND THOUGH WORDS COULD NEVER SHOW
STILL I WANTED YOU TO KNOW
THAT YOUR PRESENCE
IS REALLY SOMETHING IN MY LIFE

AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN
THE PATH IS LEADING ME WITHIN
STILL YOUR SMILE
IS LIKE A LIGHT ALONG THE WAY

YOUR LAUGHTER FILLED THE AIR
YOU SPOKE OF MOUNTAINS AND SECRETS KEPT
AND IT THAT MOMENT I REALLY FELT
LIKE I WAS WRAPPED UP AND HELD SO SWEETLY
