Lyrics
It's Been There All Along

On the night of our first date, you were runnin' late
But I sure didn't mind, yeah you were quite a find
It was clear right then, I'd want to see you again
Now I'm a lucky man, happy to have your hand

Now our lives run together, like the rivers high in spring
There's never been any doubt, we're the real thing

And It's Been There All Along, what we don't need to say
What no words can explain, like a sunny day
It's Been There All Along, like comfy old blue jeans
Like a warm summer breeze, it's a mystery
And like an old familiar song...
It's Been There All Along

We made it through tough times, drank a lot of wine
And we laughed a lot, happy with what we got
Watched our family grow, little tykes in tow
Now those days are gone, they're all movin' on

Everyday was a step, as the years ran by
We're older and wiser, startin to get it right
(Chorus then Bridge)

We don't have to try, to keep this love alive,
It will always be that strong
When we realize, what we have will never die
That's when we know
We Belong

Chorus breakdown then big then Out
