I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you

I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you

I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you

I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you

If anyone could find the joy that true love brings a girl and boy

We could we could you and I
If anyone could ever say that their true love was here to stay

We could we could you and I

When you're in my arms I know you're happy to be there

And just as long as I'm with you I'm happy anywhere

If anyone could pray each night to thank the Lord that all is right

We could we could you and I

One day you came along and spoke so tenderly

You kissed me oh so sweet and gave your love to me

One moment in my life I clung to every thrill
Time was a precious thing the day the world stood still

For one day in my life you brought me happiness

You stopped the lonely world with all your tenderness

I can't get over you I guess I never will

I came here because I knew I'd be welcome

And because somehow you always understand
You seem to have a way with lonely people

And you always were my greatest helping hand

Now once again I'm here to take advantage

Though I don't deserve the arms I left alone

I need to know there's someone who still loves me and I need a shoulder to cry on

I wanna share your life every minute every day and night

And I just want you to know that whatever you do and wherever you go
Remember someone loves you honey no matter what just be my girl

Someone loves you honey more than anything in the world

I'm so glad that I'm the one that you come to when you need someone
