Thought that I'd be happy, going to be so happy,
F
Living life alone and never sharing anything.
C                                         D
Thought that I was finished, thought that I was complete,
F
Thought that I was whole, instead of being half of something.

C                                         D
Thought that I was growing, growing older, wiser,
F
Understanding why this world held nothing for my spirit.
C                                          D
Thought that I was destined, destined to be nothing,

Destined to be nothing in this world and then I met you.

Thought that God had failed me, thought my prayers were useless,
F
Thought that he would never give the chance for me to praise him.
C                                             D
Thought the book was written, thought the game had ended,
F
Thought the song was sung and I could never sing another.

C                                                D
Thought my faith was misplaced, thought my back was broken,
F
Broken by a weight that I was never fit to carry.

C                                   D
Thought I knew this city, thought I knew all about it;
F
And then one night I went to Morningside and you were waiting.
