Yeah, I've been waiting for you
So patiently and now you're here
You're my answer, thank you, yeah
I think you're my answer, uh, here I go
You're the answer
All this time I've tried to find you
I've been yearnin' (I've been yearning inside)
You're the answer to the question
That's been burning (I've been burning inside)
When they ask me who I love
You're the answer (you're my answer)
You're my answer
Patiently I've waited for this day to finally come
Knowing someday somehow I would find that special one
Someone perfect, someone true, someone that I knew, was you
(I knew it was you)
Who can hold me tight, keep me warm, through the night
Who can wipe my tears, when it's wrong, make it right
Who can give me love, 'til I'm satisfied
Who's the one I need in my life
You're the answer
All this time I've tried to find you
I've been yearnin' (I've been yeaning inside)
You're the answer to the question
That's been burning (I've been burning inside)
When they ask me who I love
You're the answer (you're the answer baby)
You're my answer
I can hardly speak because I'm underneath your spell
Saving every moment that I have you to myself
Putting my love to the test, 'cuz baby this is destiny
(Yeah, this is destiny)
You can hold me tight, keep me warm, through the night
You can wipe my tears, when its wrong, make it right
You can give me love, 'til I'm satisfied
You're the one I need in my life
You're the answer
All this time I've tried to find you
I've been yearnin' (I've been yearning)
You're the answer to the question
That's been burning (I've been burning inside)
When they ask me who I love
You're the answer (you're my answer)
You're my answer (you're my answer)
You're the answer (yeah)
All this time I've tried to find you
I've been yearnin' (I've been yearning for you)
You're the answer to the question
That's been burning (burning)
When they ask me who I love
You're the answer (you're the answer)
You're my answer
Who can hold me tight, keep me warm, through the night?
