Lyrics
All my life
I've waited for
Someone to call my own
Oh, there have been
Some other loves
But nothing like this before
This heart of mine
Has spent some time
Opening and closing doors
And I can see
There's no need to be
Looking there anymore
'Cause suddenly
You made it clear to me
When you took my hand
I didn't understand
That you wanted all of me
And I'll be spending all my life
All my life
With you
And now and then
The memories
Of how much it hurts to bear
The loves I've lost
I'll pay the cost
'Cause I know that you'll be there
The words we say
Mean more today
Than they ever will again
So I'll be yours
If you'll be mine
Forever, until the end
'Cause suddenly
You made it clear to me
When you took my hand
I didn't understand
That you wanted all of me
And I'll be spending all my life
All my life
With you
