Raul Midón Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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.
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.
The song "Waited All My Life" by Raul Midón is a soulful love song that expresses the singer's longing for his beloved. The lyrics convey the deep emotions felt by the singer who has been waiting for his loved one all his life without even realizing it. In the first verse, the singer expresses his nervousness and excitement when he is near the person he loves. He admits that his body starts shaking and that he is not faking his emotions. The second verse expresses the depth of the singer's feelings and his certainty that they were meant to be together. The chorus repeats the central theme of waiting for his beloved, with the lyrics "I have waited all my life for you, but I didn't know it."
The bridge of the song is particularly poignant as the singer declares that he can do without all the beautiful things in the world - the moon, the stars, the rainbows - but not without the love of his life. The song closes with a reiteration of the chorus.

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.
