What I've Been Looking For

When the movie High School Musical was released, a song caught my lil sis's ear and she said, "I want you to sing this at my wedding."

So it was no surprise to me when she got engaged last year and called to ask if I would sing a duet with her bestie Ryan (Ry-Bear has been to NYC with me twice). 

The Song?

What I've Been Looking For.

Seems crazy, right?  But today I went to print out the lyrics and was surprised to see how cheesily appropriate for a wedding the lyrics actually are:

It's hard to believe
That I couldn't see
You were always there beside me
Thought I was alone
With no one to hold
But you were always right beside me.

This feeling's like no other
I want you to know
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


So good to be seen
So good to be heard

Don't have to say a word
So long I was lost
So good to be found
I'm loving having you around

This feeling's like no other
I want you to know
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


If you made it through reading all of this without singing anything, I applaud you.  I certainly did not.  Jazz Squares!

This is my favorite song from this show. Yes, I am a cheesy, 14 year old girl :D Are you singing the fast or slow version?

"It's a crowd favorite! Everyone loves a good jazz square!"

Do I need to turn in a man card for liking High School Musical?
