IT WAS NINETEEN
SIXTY-FOUR
IN A RAGING
WINTER STORM
WHEN TWO
STRANGERS MET
BY CHANCE
TO SHARE A LITTLE
WARMTH
IN THAT CROWDED
CORNER RESTAURANT
'NEATH THE BLINKING
TRAFFIC LIGHT
IT DIDN'T TAKE
TOO LONG TO SEE
THAT LOVE
WAS AT FIRST SIGHT
AND FROM
THAT MOMENT ON
THEY WERE TOGETHER
NIGHT AND DAY
HE FINALLY GOT
THE NERVE ONE NIGHT
TO TAKE HER HAND
AND SAY
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
ALL MY LIFE
WHEN YOU COULD'VE
BEEN HERE BY MY SIDE
I'VE HAD THIS LOVE
DEEP INSIDE
WAITING FOR SOMEONE
TO GIVE IT TO
AND HOPIN' THAT
SOMEONE
FEELS JUST LIKE I DO
SO WHERE HAVE
YOU BEEN
ALL MY LIFE
SO MANY YEARS
HAD PASSED
AND LOOKING BACK
THEY KNEW
THAT THEY MADE
THE RIGHT DECISION
WHAT ELSE COULD
THEY DO
HOW COULD THEY HAVE
RAISED A CHILD
WHEN THEY WERE KIDS
THEMSELVES
THE SECRET
FOR SO MANY YEARS
STAYED LOCKED UPON
THE SHELF
AND THEN ONE COLD
AND RAINY NIGHT
THEY HAD BOTH JUST
GONE TO BED
THAT SECRET KNOCKED
UPON THEIR DOOR
THEY OPENED IT
AND SHE SAID
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
ALL MY LIFE
WHEN YOU COULD'VE
BEEN HERE BY MY SIDE
I'VE HAD THIS LOVE
DEEP INSIDE
WAITING FOR SOMEONE
TO GIVE IT TO
AND HOPIN'
THAT SOMEONE
FEELS JUST LIKE I DO
SO WHERE HAVE
YOU BEEN
ALL MY LIFE
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
ALL MY LIFE
