Aretha Franklin F/ i know you were waiting for me

Select language to translate this lyric

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

(I know you did)



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, I knew you were waiting for me



With an endless desire 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

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

(I know you do)



When the river was deep I didn't fairer

When the mountain was high I still believed

When the valley was low it didn't stop me

I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me



So we were drawn together through destiny

I know this love we snared was meant to be

I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting

I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting for me
