Aretha Franklin - I Knew You Were Wating (For Me) lyrics

Like a warrior that fights And wins the battle I know the taste of victory Though I went through some nights Consumed by the shadows I was crippled emotionally Somehow I made it through the heartache Yes I did, I escaped I found my way out of the darkness I kept my faith, kept my faith When the river was deep I didn't falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low It didn't stop me, no, no I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me With and endless desire I, I kept on searching Sure in time our eyes would meet Like the bridge is on fire The hurt is over One touch and you set me free No, I don't regret a single moment No I don't, looking back When I think of all those disappointments I just laugh, I just laugh When the river was deep I didn't falter When the mountain was high I still believed When the valley was low It didn't stop me I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me So we were drawn together through destiny I know this love we share was meant to be Knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting I knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter I still believed When the valley was low It didn't stop me Knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter I still believed When the valley was low It didn't stop me Knew you were waiting Knew you were waiting for me I didn't falter I still believed It didn't stop me Knew you were waiting I didn't falter I still believed It didn't stop me
