Jennifer Yánez I Saw The Sign
[Verse 1]
Oh girl I saw the sign yeah
If you give me a bit of your time
Heavens know I am gonna make you mine
Even if it's the highest mountain I must climb
[Chorus]
I saw the sign, yes I saw the sign
No more heartaches, no more pain
Now I'm so happy, no sadness again
With this little heart of mine I saw the sign
So am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
Yes am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
[ Verse 2]
You light up my day like the risin sun
And my heart beats at you're the one
When I saw you at the pool, looking so cool
My heart breaks every rule and I felt like a fool
[Chorus]
I saw the sign, yes I saw the sign
No more heartaches, no more pain
Now I'm so happy, no sadness again
With this little heart of mine I saw the sign
So am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
Yes am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
[Verse 3]
Yes I saw the sign, I saw the sign
No more ifs, no more buts, this time
Oh girl I'm gonna make you mine
Oh yeah, yeah everything will be fine
[Chorus]
I saw the sign, yes I saw the sign
No more heartaches, no more pain
Now I'm so happy, no sadness again
With this little heart of mine I saw the sign
So am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
Yes am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
[Bridge]
I remembered my momma told me yeah
Son never count your chickens before they hatch
Sometimes you've got to watch to make your catch
But girl my heart tells me you're the only match
[Chorus]
I saw the sign, yes I saw the sign
No more heartaches, no more pain
Now I'm so happy, no sadness again
With this little heart of mine I saw the sign
So am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah
Yes am singing selah, selah, oh selah, selah

during the 70s, before they lost their way imitating the wailers, the gladiators produced a string of classic hits.
