Born for This Lyrics


All my life I've been searching for the answer
For the answer to the question
Where are youUp all night
Tryin' to see into the future
Hoping you were somewhere out there searching tooNot a smile* and shy hello and say goodbye to life as you know itNow I'm not asking questions any more,
Found the reason* he was putting on this earth
Every heart beat pounding inside my chest
Telling me we were born for this
For this perfect moment and every moment after
For this first day of forever,
Eyes closed kiss, we were born for thisA thousand miles walking in the wrong direction
Turns out I was always headed straight to this
Place in time all the pieces finally did arrive
When you take my hand it feels like I am homeNot answer to a prayer, I see you standing there, not life as you know itNow I'm not asking questions any more,
Found the reason he was putting on this earth
Every heart beat pounding inside my chest
Telling me that we were born for this
For this perfect moment and every moment after

For this first day of forever,
Eyes closed kiss, we were born for thisIt doesn't matter where I go from this, as long as I go there with youAll my life I've been searching for the answer
For the answer to the question where are youI'm not asking questions any more,
Found the reason he was putting on this earth
Every heart beat pounding inside my chest
Is telling me we were born for this
For this perfect moment and every moment after
For this first day of forever,
Eyes closed kiss, we were born for thisIt doesn't matter where I go from this, as long as I'm going there with you*smile - uncertain
*reason - uncertain; seed?
