Gm   Cm             F
The waiting game is over
G#            Gm
No need for pretending
         Dsus4    D
We were meant to be
Gm  Cm               F
It's only getting stronger
    G#              Gm
The love I feel for you
      Csus4   C
It's no mystery

I've got to find some way to tell you
Though our world seems far apart
It just don't have to be
The time has come to testify
All the feelings I've been holding back
It's time to set them free

Chorus:
          Gm       D#           A#
I've been watching you from the other side
          Gm         D#       A#
I've been wanting to hold you through the night
            Gm      D#         A#
I've got to find my way to the other side
          Gm       D#             F
I want to hold you tonight and forever

The moment that I saw you
I knew inside my heart, all my dreams
would come true
I know it took some time to realize
A love we can't deny, I've got to see it through

Chorus

I want to be the one who loves you, now and forever
I want to take my place beside you
I want to be the one to hold you, now and forever
I will meet you there on the other side

Chorus - x2

From the other side, from the other side
I want to hold you tonight and forever
