I've felt you coming, girl, as you drew near

I knew you'd find me, cause I longed you here

Are you my destiny? Is this how you'll appear

Are you the one that I've been waiting for?

As you've been moving surely toward me
G+G D MajorD
My soul has comforted and assured me

That in time my heart it will reward me

And that all will be revealed

So I've sat and I've watched an ice-age thaw

Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built

And lay your head upon my shoulder

Outside my window the world has gone to war

Stars have their moments and then they pass
Verse 4:
B minorBm D MajorD
There's a man who spoke wonders, though I've never met him

And who knocks will be let in"

I think of you in motion

Are you the one that I've been waiting for?
