Waited All My Life
Raul Midón Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whenever I am near to you,
I don't know quite what to do.
My body starts shaking.
Baby I'm not faking.

If you would turn your eyes to me,
It would be so clear to see,
That I'm not mistaken.
And I'm hoping that you'll see

What we'll say upon that special day
With our hearts is more than words can say
You'll be in these arms of mine eternally

And I have waited all my life for you
But I didn't know it.
I have waited all my life for you,
But I didn't know it.

It's not the way you look at me,
Or your personality.
It's deeper than these things
And it's been going on so long.
You give your love so naturally
You go to my heart you see
You're all I'm dreaming
Baby we were meant to be.

What we'll say upon this special day
With our hearts is more than words can say
Now you're in these arms of mine eternally

And I have waited all my life for you
But I didn't know it.
I have waited all my life for you,
But I didn't know it.

I'll get along without the moon
I'll get along without the stars
I'll get along without the rainbows in the sky
I'll get along without the joy
That will surely fill my heart
When I can look in to your eyes
Without love I can't survive

And I have waited all my life for you
But I didn't know it.




I have waited all my life for you,
But I didn't know it.

Não tem como Raul Midón é diferenciado.Seu estilo pouco ortodoxo de tocar violão e sua voz fantástica formam uma combinação perfeita.

One of the interesting things blind people reveal is the ways visually-able people limit themselves. The way he plays, the way he sings, he isn't constrained by what 'looks' good, he can focus entirely on what sounds good.
