[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
