Troy:
It's hards to belive that i couldn't see
That you were always there beside me
Gabriella:
Thought i was alone
With no-one to hold
Both:
But you were always there beside me
This feelings like no other
I want you to know
CHORUS
Both:
I've never had someone
That knows me like you do
The way you do
I've never had someone as good for me as you
No-one like you
So lonely before I finally found
What I've been looking for
Gabriella:
Ooohhhhh Ooohhhhh Oohhhhh
It's hards to belive that i couldn't see
That you were always there beside me
Gabriella:
Thought i was alone
With no-one to hold
Both:
But you were always there beside me
This feelings like no other
I want you to know
CHORUS
Both:
I've never had someone
That knows me like you do
The way you do
I've never had someone as good for me as you
No-one like you
So lonely before I finally found
What I've been looking for
Gabriella:
Ooohhhhh Ooohhhhh Oohhhhh
