(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)
|
You're all I need to get by.
|
Like the sweet morning dew, I took one look at you,
|
And it was plain to see, you were my destiny.
|
With my arms open wide, I threw away my pride
|
I'll sacrifice for you Dedicate my life for you
|
I will go where you lead
|
Always there in time of need
|
And when I lose my will
|
You'll be there to push me up the hill
|
There's no, no looking back for us
|
We got love sure 'nough, that's enough
|
You're all, You're All I need to get by.
|
I all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
|
All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one
|
You're all, You're all I need to get by.
|
|
You're all I need to get by.
|
Like an eagle protects his nest, for you I'll do my best,
|
Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me
|
Darling in you I found Strength where I was torn down
|
Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door
|
Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher
|
I know you can make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goa
|
Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination
|
|
You're all, You're All I need to get by.
|
I all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more
|
All, all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one
|
You're all, You're all I need to get by.
