And one day I woke up like a beautiful song

you sang to my heart what took you so long 
 
 
G              Em        C           G 
Where have you been with your tender kiss

All of my life I've been longing for this

I kept thinking I'd found you

Just to find I was wrong

Now finally you found me what took you so long

But I know I'm not dreaming so this must be real
