I Knew You Were Waiting lyrics

Like a warrior that fights

And wins the battle

I know the taste of victory

Though I went through some nights

Consumed by 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

With an endless desire 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 (oh, 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 still believed

When the valley was low it didn't stop me

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

I knew you were waiting.

I knew you were waiting for me

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

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

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
