Lyrics

Sailed the endless tides, looking far and wide Trying to fill the hole buried deep inside I was out of hope 'til I looked in your eyes Swear my world lit up the moment you arrived Been lookin' for the one, and you're the missin' piece Of me, I searched the farthest sea And everything between us feels like treasure that I seek The moment we locked eyes, I felt it deep inside of me You're my missing piece Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm Though my boat may shake out upon the blue I don't fear the waves 'cause they led me to you I felt it in my chest, the moment we aligned 'Til my final breath, I'll love you all my life Been lookin' for the one, and you're the missin' piece Of me, I searched the farthest sea And everything between us feels like treasure that I seek The moment we locked eyes, I felt it deep inside of me You're my missing piece Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You're the missin' piece Of me, I searched the farthest sea And everything between us feels like treasure that I seek The moment we locked eyes, I felt it deep inside of me You're my missing piece
