Strangers meet for the very first time
The space between us a rushing riddle
And though I may not know their eyes
I’ll wait for my love to meet me in the middle (x6)
Wait for my love
We don’t know yet, but we can’t wait
It’s one of those things you know when you see it
You can’t double guess, you can’t tempt fate
Love keeps rhythm and rhyme a secret
But I’ll wait for my love to meet me in the middle (x6)
Wait for my love
Oh…oh…oh…oh…oh…oh
Love is such a precious prize
Hold it close if you ever catch it
May take a while but don’t you cry
Love reveals itself to the patient
Wait for your love to meet you in the middle (x6)
Oh…oh…oh…oh…oh…oh
Past and present passes by
The future winks a weary eye
I don’t care I won’t even try
I’ll stand here in the open air
Until the day I meet her stare
A stranger that I’ll recognize
A gaze I’ll share
A puzzle piece that fits so tight
The missing color painted bright
The verse finally rhyming with the rhythm and the timing
The light that all the shadows fear
The cracks receding from a mirror
The bridge at last erected
The sides at last connected
Oh…oh
