Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just in time, I found you just in time
Before you came, my time was running low
I was lost, the losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time
You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

Mm, I was lost, the losing dice were tossed
My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
Now you're here and now I know just where I'm going
No more doubt or fear, I found my way
For love came just in time




You found me just in time
And changed my lonely life that lovely day

Just in time, I found you just in time
I found you exactly when I needed you


Before you came, my time was running low
My situation was getting worse before you came into my life


I was lost, the losing dice were tossed
I was directionless and my chances of succeeding were poor


My bridges all were crossed, nowhere to go
I had exhausted all my options and had nowhere to turn


Now you're here and now I know just where I'm going
Your arrival has given me direction and purpose


No more doubt or fear, I found my way
I am no longer uncertain or scared, I have figured out my path

Love arrived at the perfect moment


You found me just in time
You arrived exactly when I needed you


And changed my lonely life that lovely day
You transformed my unhappy life into a wonderful one
