Jim Witter - All My Life lyrics

rate me

It was 1964 in a raging winter storm<br />

When two strangers met by chance<br />

To share a little warmth<br />

In that crowded corner restaurant<br />

'Neath that blinking traffic light<br />

It didn't take too long to see<br />

That love was at first sight<br />

And from that moment on<br />

They were together night and day<br />

He finally got the nerve one night<br />

To take her hand and say:<br />

<br />

Chorus:<br />

Where have you been all my life<br />

When you could have been here by my side<br />

I've had this love deep inside<br />

Waiting for someone to give it to<br />

I'm hoping that someone feels just like I do<br />

So where have you been all my life<br />

<br />

So many years had passed<br />

And looking back they knew<br />

That they made the right decision<br />

What else could they do<br />

How could they have raised a child<br />

When they were kids themselves<br />

A secret for so many years<br />

Stayed locked upon the shelf<br />

And then one cold rainy night<br />

They had both just gone to bed<br />

That secret knock upon their door<br />

They opened then and she said<br />

<br />

(Chorus)<br />

<br />

Where have you been all my life?</
