Best Song Lyric


(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life
I’ve been waiting for so long,
Now I’ve fin’lly found someone
To stand by me.
We saw the writing on the wall
As we felt this magical
Fantasy.

Now with passion in our eyes
There’s no way we could disguise it
Secretly.
So we take each other’s hand,
’Cause we seem to understand
The urgency.

Just remember:

You’re the one thing
I can’t get enough of,
So I’ll tell you something,
This could be love.

Because

I’ve had the time of my life;
No I never felt this way before.
Yes I swear it’s the truth,
And I owe it all to you.

I’ve had the time of my life,
And I’ve searched through ev’ry open door
Til I’ve found the truth,
And I owe it all to you.
