The Lyrics…

I never had no one that I could count on

I’ve been let down so many times

I was tired of hurtin’ so tired of searchin’

Til you walked into my life

It was a feelin’ I’d never known

And for the first time I didn’t feel alone

You’re more than a lover

There could never be another

To make me feel the way you do

Oh we just get closer

I fall in love all over

Every time I look at you

I don’t know where I’d be

Without you here with me

Life with you makes perfect sense

You’re my best friend

You stand by me you believe in me

Like nobody ever has

When my world goes crazy

You’re right there to save me

You make me see how much I have

And I still tremble when we touch

Oh the look in your eyes

When we make love

You’re more than a lover

There could never be another

To make me feel the way you do

Oh we just get closer

I fall in love all over

Every time I look at you

And I don’t know where I’d be

Without you here with me

Life with you makes perfect sense

You’re my best friend
