Lyrics
She gets up before the dawn
Trying to find the courage to face another day
She used to think it would be easy
To do it all alone
On the other side of town
He gets home from working the grave yard shift
It's far from the life he dreams of
But he does it anyway
They hold on to the hope
That their chance will come
A chance to hold on to someone
The lonely tears and empty nights
Seems like will never end
But they sure are long ones
That's when fate stepped in
And love began
He can't get her out of his mind
Working all night looking forward to the morning
Hoping true love he will find
In her arms, one more time
(Chorus)
He gets up the courage and knocks on her front door
She greets him with a smile and he holds her once more
Thankful for the hope
That their chance has finally come
They hold on to one another
The lonely tears and empty nights
For both of them are gone
And there is no other
Ever since fate stepped in
And love began
Love began
