All Along

When we crossed paths
I knew right away
The one I was destined for
Had caught up with me that day
We were both searching
To find our other half
We fit together like two pieces
of a faded photograph
C
All along
We’d been missing
Someone we had not met
But from that moment on
Our whole lives were set
All along
We both knew
There was someone out there yet
Waiting to be found
Someone we’d never forget

When we started to talk
I asked, “where’ve you been”?
I’ve been waiting such a long time
For our lives to begin
He’d been travelling
Just the same as I
We’d both been coast to coast
Looking for what we couldn’t find
C
All along
We’d been missing
Someone we had not met
But from that moment on
Our whole lives were set
All along
We both knew
There was someone out there yet
Waiting to be found
Someone we’d never forget
B
They say there is someone for everyone
I was sure I’d missed my chance
But we knew from the first glance
The day we finally met… that
C
All along
We’d been waiting
Someone we had not met
But from that moment on
Our whole lives were set
All along
We both knew
There was someone out there yet
Waiting to be found
Someone we’d never forget
