I'd been searching and searching
But the trail was turning cold
Running sideways and in circles
Looking for that heart of gold
I finally threw my hands up
And simply handed over the key
Felt the power of surrender
That's when your love set me free

I was born for this moment
You sure took your sweet time
Down blind alleys and broken roads
You took my darkest hour and you made it shine
I was born for this moment
Now my world has come alive
I can feel it when you touch my hand
It took patience and time for me to understand

I was hungry for adventure
Chasing every crazy dream
I was living in thе moment
But the moment wasn't what it seemеd
Then I saw a vision
Your eyes across a crowded room
Felt the power of emotion
And these are the words I said to you

I was born for this moment
You sure took your sweet time
Down blind alleys and broken roads
You took my darkest hour and you made it shine
I was born for this moment
Now my world has come alive
I can feel it when you touch my hand
It took patience and time for me to understand

I was born for this moment
You sure took your sweet time
Down blind alleys and broken roads
You took my darkest hour and you made it shine
I was born for this moment
Now my world has come alive
I can feel it when you touch my hand
It took patience and time for me to understand
I was born for this moment
I've been searching and searching
Down blind alleys and broken roads
You took my darkest hour and you made it shine
I was born for this moment
Now my world has come alive
I can feel it when you touch my hand
It took patience and time for me to understand
I was born for this moment
