You grew up across the Gulf of Mexico But we had to cross the world to meet And even though we're stuck in a ten hour drive I can't close my eyes 'cause I'm stuck on you right now Where you been all my life? Fast forward and the job kept us apart Two years but we didn't miss a beat And even though you're thousands of miles from me When I close my eyes you're all I see right now Where you been all my life? Now that there's nothing else in between We'll get a place in New Orleans Stay up late and watch your movies Hold hands until the sun sets I wake up you're here in my bed Where you been all my life? I've never met a person quite like you my love You don't quit when the going gets tough And even though it feels like it's make believe On the hardest days you're still stuck on me Where you been all my life Now that there's nothing else in between We'll get a place in New Orleans Stay up late and watch your movies Hold hands until the sun sets I wake up you're here in my bed Where you been all my life Hold hands until the sun sets I wake up you're here in our bed Where you been all my life Where you been all my life Where you been all my life Where you been all my life
