It Might Be You Lyrics

Time
I've been passing time watching trains go by
All of my life
Lying on the sand, watching seabirds fly
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me
Something's telling me it might be you
It's telling me it might be you
All of my life

Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life
Wondering how they met and what makes it last
If I found the place
Would I recognise the face
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah it's telling me it might be you

So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And we've so much love to make
Oh, I think we've gonna need some time
Many be all we need is time

And it's telling me it might be you
All of my life

I've been saving love songs and lullabies
And there're so much more
No one's ever heard before
Something's telling me it might be you
Yeah, it's telling me it must be you
And I'm feeling it'll just be you
All of my life

May be it's you (it's you)
May be it's you (it's you)
I've been waiting for all of my life

Beautiful lines. There are so many excellent love songs out there just waiting to be exposed.

I agree with pistolero. Very romantic and poetic. The melody is perfect too, so wistful and expressive. It just sounds like you're in love but you wonder if it's for real. I really like the opening lyric: Time I've been passing time watching trains go by All of my life Lying on the sand, watching seabirds fly Wishing there would be Someone waiting home for me Something's telling me it might be you It's telling me it might be you All of my life

This is my all time favorite song since I was a teenager. For me this song is about a hopeless romantic person who has never been in love and looking/waiting for that person who will make her feel special, head over heals in love. She's imagining quiet walks with him, she built her dreams and hopes with him; she saved love songs and lullabies and much more only for him. And she's patiently waiting for him.

In my early 20s, I finally met him and fall in love for the first time. Just like the song I imagined myself with him and built my dreams and hopes with him. I was so excited, I guess too excited that I became needy, demanding, anxious and sensitive. What can I do? It was the first time that I felt those kinds of emotions. It was as if I was under a magic spell; all I wanted was to talk to him, all I thought about was him. By the way this was a long distance relationship and we never really got the chance to be with each other before he left - we (or maybe I) just fell in love unexpectedly and crazily. It was difficult and he referred to himself as 'hopeless', which I dis not understood why. But still I demanded his time although we were half the world apart and that he might be busy. It came to a point when we're no longer speaking regularly and that I got mad and accused him things. Perhaps he was hurt so he told me to just 'let go and forget him'. Perhaps he felt hopeless or maybe for him our relationship was hopeless and it's better to end it. It was the most painful event in my life. I felt rejected. I felt so ugly and unworthy. I got depressed. I did things that I regret. My world was shattered. I am a person who always have plans and knows what to do, but this event made me like a person with no direction - like a leaf being swayed by the wind. It was like I was only trying to survive, I was no longer alive.

Now I'm married and in my late 30s but there are still lots of 'what ifs' and 'if only'. Just like the song: What might have happened if it was not a long distance relationship? If I was not too needy or anxious? If we had a better communication? Or did he really loved me? Could it be that I might be the only one who's in love? No one knows, that's why this song is fitting - my first love is my 'it might be you'. Because it was never meant to be and I need to do what he said 'to let go and forget him'.
