It Might Be You
BISHOP STEPHEN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time
I've been passing time watching trains go by
All of my life
Lying on the sand, watching seabirds fly
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me
Something's telling me it might be you
It's telling me it might be you
All of my life

Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life
Wondering how they met and what makes it last
If I found the place
Would I recognise the face
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it might be you

So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And we've so much love to make
Oh-oh, I think we've gonna need some time
Maybe all we need is time

And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life

I've been saving love songs and lullabies
And there're so much more
No one's ever heard before
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it must be you
And I'm feeling it'll just be you
All of my life

It's you
It's you
I've been waiting for all of my life

(Maybe it's you) It's you
(Maybe it's you) It's you
I've been waiting for all of my life (oh, it's you, it's you)

(Maybe it's you) It's you, it's you
(Maybe it's you)
(I've been waiting for all of my life)

It's you, it's you
Maybe it's you




It's you, girl
Maybe it's you I've been waiting for

I had to comment here because this song is such a beautiful one and it took me a really hard time to find this.

SO, I watched this filo film when I was a teen and this was the theme song for this. I absolutely loved the intro instrumental. I took note of the song and I learned that my mom also loves the song. BUT THEN, I totally forgot about it as there came a lot of songs that I got interested in.

And then, I heard the intro in one TikTok ad and I was like "I've heard this melody." However, there was no comment about the song title, and it's an ad so I can't really check out the sound used because for some reason I can't. I was so frustrated because I totally fell in love with the instrumental intro all over again only to be deprived of the song title (which I forgot).

The worse thing is, I can't remember the movie/film I heard this as a theme song so I was laughing at my being dumb. Then I remembered I know who the lead actors are, so I searched for the list of movies they were in and luckily, I found it. I searched for that movie's theme song and I met the title of this song!

Anyway, I just wanted to share my hilarious, stupid, but fun experience in looking for this absolutely beautiful song. I totally love this.

As professional musicians, my best friend and I both played this as the first song every time we worked for over 20 years. It was just our “thing”. She passed away six months ago and I miss her like mad. I was recently standing in a shop and this song came on. I’m standing in line with tears just pouring down my face. I knew she was there with me.
