Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
As light fades all around me
I can feel the rhythm closing in, yeah
Wanna go all night when you're around me
You just give me something that I need, yeah
Make you [?] know how you're feeling about me
I can read all the signs that you wanna tell me
You can have all your night cause I wait to see
Just to find you're the one, always knew you would be
I was praying you come into my life
And I'm living with you right by my side
And you show me that it would be alright, be alright, be alright
With you right by my side
I was praying you come into my life
And I'm living with you right by my side
And you show me that it would be alright, be alright, be alright
With you right by my side
Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
I feel the race of time upon me
But this night just got me into deep, yeah
As I close my eyes, you whisper to me
Oh you see the words I long to hear, now baby
Make you [?] know how you're feeling about me
I can read all the signs that you wanna tell me
You can have all your night cause I wait to see
Just to find you're the one, always knew you would be
I was praying you come into my life, yeah
And I'm living with you right by my side
And you show me that it would be alright, be alright, be alright
With you right by my side
I was praying you come into my life, yeah
And I'm living with you right by my side
And you show me that it would be alright, be alright, be alright
With you right by my side
Baby, where have you been?
Cause I've been waiting way too long
[?] you're with me
Cause you and I [?]
Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
I was praying you come into my life, yeah
And I'm living with you right by my side
And you show me that it would be alright,
Be alright, be alright, be alright
I wish that I could live this night again
I'll hold onto this moment to the end
I wish that I could live this night again
I'll hold onto this moment to the end




Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
