(Are You) The One That I've Been Waiting For? |
I’ve felt you coming girl, as you drew near |
I knew you’d find me, cause I longed you here |
Are you my destiny? |
Is this how you’ll appear? |
Wrapped in a coat with tears in your eyes? |
Well take that coat babe, and throw it on the floor |
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for? |
As you’ve been moving surely toward me My soul has comforted and assured me That in time my heart it will reward me And that all will be revealed |
So I’ve sat and I’ve watched an ice-age thaw |
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for? |
Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built |
Out of longing great wonders have been willed |
They’re only little tears, darling, let them spill |
And lay your head upon my shoulder |
Outside my window the world has gone to war |
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for? |
O we will know, won’t we? |
The stars will explode in the sky |
O but they don’t, do they? |
Stars have their moment and then they die |
There’s a man who spoke wonders though I’ve never met him |
He said, 'He who seeks finds and who knocks will be let in' |
I think of you in motion and just how close you are getting |
And how every little thing anticipates you |
All down my veins my heart-strings call |
Are you the one that I’ve been waiting for? |
