I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) lyrics
Like a warrior that fights And wins the battle I know the taste of victory Though I went through some nights Consumed by the shadows I was crippled emotionally Somehow, I made it through the heartache Yes I did, I escaped I found my way out of the darkness I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith When the river was deep, I didn't falter When the mountain was high, I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, no, no I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me, uh-huh With an endless desire I, I kept on searching Sure in time our eyes would meet Like the bridge is on fire The hurt is over One touch and you set me free No, I don't regret a single moment No, I don't (I know you don't) looking back When I think of all those disappointments I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh When the river was deep, I didn't falter When the mountain was high, I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me So we were drawn together through destiny (ooh, boy) I know this love we shared was meant to be I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter, I didn't falter I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me (nothing can stop me, no) I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter When the mountain was high, I still believed When the valley was low, it didn't stop me No, it didn't stop me, no I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter, oh yeah I still believed, oh I still believed It didn't stop me (do you know it didn't stop me, no?) I knew you were waiting, someday, some way, some way, somehow For me I didn't falter, when the valley was low I still believed, and I still believed (I believe)
