Just when I thought all my hope was gone
Had given up on having you
Looked up and saw everything had changed
Looked up to see the light shining on through

And though I'd fantasized it
I'd never realized it
Could feel so wonderful

And while I heard the sounding
Of my tired heart's pounding
I smiled and decided

Now that was worth
Waiting for
Never felt like
This before
I couldn't have
Asked for more
Yeah this was worth
Waiting for

We spent the day together
Both smiling from ear to ear
With you right there beside me
I'd no more reason to fear

Then you put your arm around me
Finally it all felt right
This is how it's supposed to be
You here, you holding me tight

Well, yeah I'd fantasized it
But never realized it
Could be so wonderful

Deafened by the sounding
Of my own heart's pounding
I still heard it screaming

That this was all worth waiting for
I should never have doubted you
I've never felt this way before
Never felt something oh so true...

And I couldn't have asked for more
Than everything that you are

One day gone, and now my heart knows:

Something like this
With someone like you
Is so worth waiting for
