VERSE one {Marc Anthony}:
I was counting down the minutes
I was wishing on the stars
I was praying for a sign
trying to beat the odds
I was dreaming of you
long before I saw your face

There you were,
waiting for that day
Then you
reached through the hurricane
when you
baby you called my name

CHORUS {together}:
You broke through the storm
and you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
burning the midnight sky
and your love
keeps taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
where the hero belongs
there you were

VERSE two {Jessica Simpson}:
Must've broke into Heaven just to roll back the clouds Were you on a mission
Were you seeking me out
Was I that
one in a million
was I one sacred kiss
that you couldn't chance
you just couldn't miss

Then you babe
you whispered through the silent tears
when you, you swept away all my tears

CHORUS {together}:
You broke through the storm
and you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
burning the midnight sky
and your love
keeps taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
where the hero belongs
there you were

BRIDGE {together}:
Standing in the middle of nowhere
with your arms wide open
and you
you were the reason where there was no reason in my life
you're the reason in my life

CHORUS x 2 {together}:
You broke through the storm
and you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
burning the midnight sky
and your love
keeps taking me higher
Just when all hope was gone
where the hero belongs
there you were

oh, hero
yeah

BRIDGE two {Sam Watters, ad libs by Jessica and Marc}:
Like the light in the eye of the storm (mmm)
Telling me not to cry anymore
(there you were)
when I watched my whole world fall apart
(oh babe) Shining through like an angel from afar
(Like an angel)

CHORUS to fade:
You broke through the storm
and you turned back the night
Baby you are the fire
burning the midnight sky
and your love...
