                    E                    A/E
Like a warrior that fights, and wins the battle

                       E
I know the taste of victory

                                                  A/E
Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows

                        E
I was crippled emotionally

Somehow I made it through the heartache

      F#m7     C#m7     C#7
Yes I did, I escaped

F#m7                      C#m7
I found my way out of the darkness

          A
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith

                   E              A/E
When the river was deep, I didn't falter

                      E               A/E
When the mountain was high, I still believed

                    E              A/E
When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, no no

  F#m7          C#m7     F#m7            A           A6 – E
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 I don't regret a single moment, no I don't looking hack 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
            A/C# A/C E/B          G#  C#m
So we were drawn together through destiny

I know this love we  shared was meant to be

  F#m7          C#m7     F#m7            C#m7
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting

I knew you were waiting , knew you were waiting for me
