I was counting down the minutes

I was wishin' on the stars

I was prayin' for a sign

And tryin' to beat the odds

I was dreamin' of you

Long before I saw your face

And there you were

Waitin' for that day

Then you reached through the hurricane

When you, baby, you called my name



Chorus:

You broke through the storm

And you turned back the night

Baby you are the fire

Burnin' the midnight sky

And your love

Keeps taking me higher

Just when all hope was gone

Where the hero belongs

There you were

There you were



Must have broken into heaven

Just to roll back the clouds

Were you on a mission

Were you seeking me out

Was I that one in a million

Was I that one sacred kiss

That you couldn't chance

You just couldn't miss

Then you, babe, you whispered through the silent tears

When you, you swept away all my fears



(Repeat Chorus)



Standin' in the middle of nowhere

With your arms wide open

and you, you were the reason

when there was no reason in my life

You're the reason in my life



(Repeat Chorus 2X)



Like the light in the eye of the storm

Tellin' me not to cry anymore

There you were

Where I watched my whole world fall apart

Shinin' through like on angel from afar



Oh, like an angel



(Repeat Chorus)
