Lyrics

Like a warrior that fights And wins the battle I know the taste of victory Though I went through some nights Consumed by shadows I was crippled emotionally Somehow I made it through the heartache Yes I did, I escaped I found my way out of the darkness I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith When the river was deep I didn't falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low it didn't stop me, no no I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me With an endless desire I kept on searching Sure in time our eyes would meet Like the bridge is on fire The hurt is over One touch and you set me free No, I don't regret a single moment No, I don't (I know you don't) looking back When I think of all those disappointments I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh When the river was deep I didn't falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low it didn't stop me I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me So we were drawn together through destiny (oh, boy) I know this love we shared was meant to be I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter (I didn't falter now) I still believed When the valley was low It didn't stop me (and nothing can stop me now) I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low it didn't stop me, no it didn't stop me, no I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter I still believed, oh I still believed It didn't stop me, do you know they gonna stop me now, no I knew you were waiting Someday, someway, someday, somehow, on me I didn't falter The valley was low I still believed, I still believed It didn't stop me Then how they could stop me I knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting for me
