I've waited all my life for someone just like you
And now that I've found you, there's nothing I can do
Just like so many others who want to be free
It's just a hopeless love affair, sweetheart, for you and me
I fought my way through grief and tears to make my dreams come true
And now at last they could be real if I could just have you
But I know that it's impossible to start my life anew
But I waited all my life for someone just like you
I've waited all my life for someone just like you
Someone who could love me the way that you do
Your heart could be my very own, a heart that could be true
And I've waited all my life for someone just like you
I fought my way through grief and tears to make my dreams come true
And now at last they could be real if I could just have you
But I know that it's impossible to start my life anew
I waited all my life for someone just like you
