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 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 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 I've been waiting for?
|
|
O we will know... won't we?
|
The stars will explode in the sky
|
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 I've been waiting for?
|
