I see you standing in the light in the window of my bedroom
That old moon has never shined as bright as it's shining now on you
I see a new star in the heavens for us tonight
I've been a waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long?
Sometimes it takes much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's what I want to be, oh what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time.
Making up, for lost time
I turn around and get lost in the look that you give to me
I drift awake when I hear you say you've only lived to find me
Darling, let me hold you in my arms darling, oh, so tight
I've been a waiting for you most of my life
Now that we're together and we're where we belong,
I can't help but wonder why, why did it take so long
Sometimes it takes much time to find the right one to say
I wanna make you mine, I wanna make you mine
Be with you all the time
And be the only light in your eyes that ever shines
Sometimes it takes many roads to reach the right one to say
Here's what I want to be, oh what you mean to me
When we're making love
I'll spend the rest of my life with you making up for lost time.
Making up, for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
You know we'll be everyday
Making up, making up for lost time
We never spent together, lost time
Better late than never, lost time
We never spent together, lost time
