It Might Be You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time, I've been passing time, watching trains go by
All of my life
Lying on the sand, watching sea birds fly
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me
Something's telling me it might be you
It's telling me it might be you
All of my life
[Verse 2]
Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life
Wondering how they met and what makes it last?
If I found the place, would I recognize the face?
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it might be you
[Bridge]
So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And with so much love to make (Oh)
I think we're gonna need some time
Maybe all we need is time
And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life
Time, I've been passing time, watching trains go by
All of my life
Lying on the sand, watching sea birds fly
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me
Something's telling me it might be you
It's telling me it might be you
All of my life
[Verse 2]
Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life
Wondering how they met and what makes it last?
If I found the place, would I recognize the face?
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it might be you
[Bridge]
So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And with so much love to make (Oh)
I think we're gonna need some time
Maybe all we need is time
And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life
[Verse 3]
I've been saving love songs and lullabies
And there's so much more
No one's ever heard before
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it must be you
And I'm feeling it'll just be you
All of my life
[Outro]
It's you, it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you (It's you)
I've been waiting for you all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
I've been saving love songs and lullabies
And there's so much more
No one's ever heard before
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it must be you
And I'm feeling it'll just be you
All of my life
[Outro]
It's you, it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you (It's you)
I've been waiting for you all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
Maybe it's you (It's you), maybe it's you
I've been waiting for all of my life
