Lyrics

I look in side my crys tal ball of de sire

and know why rap id beats my heart.

I see the spark, I feel the flame of the fire,

let ting me know love wants to start.

No more (Dm)play ing a round, no more wait ing a round for the spe cial one to come.

No more (Bb)wear ing a frown, no more tears com ing down, ’cause I (G7sus)know what I (G7)want, and I (A7sus)want what I (A7)know: it’s (D)you.

No (Bm9)bod y has to tell me so.

It’s you.

It’s you.

You’re that (Em7)an gel sent from heav en a bove.

It’s you.

No (Bm9)bod y has to tell me so.

It’s you.

You’re that (Em7)an gel sent from heav en a bove

for me

(C6)for (Cmaj9)you (Bbmaj9)and (Amaj13)you,

(Gm9)for (C9)me.

If on ly I had not wait ed, I would have (Em7)picked the wrong one.

If on ly I had not wait ed, my life would (Gm7)be un done.

If on ly I had not wait ed, I would have (Em7)picked the wrong one.

If on ly I had not wait ed for you.

I look be hind, and what a sight is the mire.

So ver y lone ly was my heart.

I look a head, I hear the sound of the choir,

sing ing that love will nev er part.

No more (Dm)hear ing the sound of the rain com ing down, no more “I can’t see the sun.”

No more (Bb)hurt ing for fun, ’cause the mo ment has come when I (G7sus)know what I (G7)want, and I (A7sus)want what I (A7)know: it’s (D)you.

No (Bm9)bod y has to tell me so.

It’s you.

It’s you.

You’re that (Em7)an gel sent from heav en a bove.

It’s you.

No (Bm9)bod y has to tell me so.

It’s you.

You’re that (Em7)an gel sent from heav en a bove

for me

(C6)for (Cmaj9)you (Bbmaj9)and (Amaj13)you,

(Gm9)for (C9)me.

If on ly I had not wait ed, I would have (Em7)picked the wrong one.

If on ly I had not wait ed, my life would (Gm7)be un done.

If on ly I had not wait ed, I would have (Em7)picked the wrong one.

If on ly I had not wait ed for you.

’Cause ba by, It’s you.

No

’Cause ba by, it’s you.
