Like a warrior that fights and wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally, mm
Somehow I made it through the heartache
Yes, I did, I escaped (uh-huh)
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, uh-huh
With an endless desire, I, 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, uh
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 (oh)
I knew you were waiting (hey), I knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny (ooh, boy), ooh
I know this love we share is meant to be (oh) oh
I knew you were waiting (ooh, yeah)
Knew you were waiting (I knew you were waiting)
Knew you were waiting for me
(Oh, I didn't falter) I didn't falter, no
(I still believe) when the valley was low
(It didn't stop me) and nothing can stop me, no
Knew you were waiting (no way, no, yeah)
Knew you were waiting for me
(I didn't falter) when the mountain was high
(I still believed) oh, when the valley was low
(It didn't stop me) no, it didn't stop me, no
I knew you were waiting (someday)
I knew you were waiting for me (yeah)
Oh (I didn't falter), oh yeah
(I still believed) oh, I still believe
(It didn't stop me) do you know it didn't stop me? (No)
(Knew you were waiting) someday
Someway (someplace), somehow for me
(I didn't falter) when the valley was low
(I still believed) I still believe, I believe, I believe
(It didn't stop me) yeah, it couldn't stop me
(Knew you were waiting) no way
