All My Life

All my life I've searched this whole world through Try as I might To find someone like you The years drifted by But it was always on my mind I didn't know how long I'd go Until I ran out of time All my life I've hurt the ones who cared One by one No loving heart was spared I've been a wild and restless man But still a man who needs a wife That was my dream, and now it seems You've taken all my life For as long as I could, my intentions were good I assumed my affairs would be fine But I know very well, there's a long road to hell That's been paved with intentions like mine All my life I've paid for my mistakes After a while The strongest spirit breaks I've had heartache and pain That cut me deeper than a knife Ah, but those days are done 'Cause you're the one I've wanted all my life And I know very well, there's a long road to hell That's been paved with intentions like mine All my life My stars were surely crossed Now and then I missed the love I lost But all that changed The day you said you'd be my wife Who could have known that finding you Would only take me all my life?
