Boy you dropped a bomb on me a long, long time ago
|
And all I ever wanted was to love you baby
|
Something sacred in my life, a flame to burn, a candle bright
|
I want to stay just for your loving baby [? ]
|
Known so many others in my life, none like you
|
No one else can make me feel the things you do
|
And if I had the chance to do it all again
|
I'd do it 'cause you've always been my true love and my best friend
|
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever wanted was)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever needed baby)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(Understand me child)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(Hear me talking to you)
|
|
Looking out the window when I woke today
|
I wished you all the finer things the world could give you daughter
|
Sunshine on your face, good health, prosperity and grace
|
And time to reap what you've been sowing, love and laughter
|
Had so many others in my life, none like you
|
No one else can make me feel the things you do
|
And if I had the chance to do it all again
|
I'd do it 'cause you've always been my first love and my next of kin
|
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever wanted was)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever needed was)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I got a walk through the dark with a light so bright)
|
|
Deep inside my heart of hearts
|
Only heaven knows the things I pray for late at night when I'm alone
|
Faith, hope, love and charity
|
All these things for my family
|
And from the moment that I wake up I say a little prayer for you
|
Like Aretha said, "I say a little prayer for you."
|
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever wanted was)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(All I ever needed was)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(Understand me?)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I know y'all hear me now)
|
|
All I ever wanted was a place to call my own
|
Just a little slice of paradise and home
|
I thank the Lord above for sending me your precious love
|
And from sunrise to sunup it's all about you baby yeah
|
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I got a walk through the dark with a light so bright)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I got a joy and a happiness I've never known)
|
You baby, you baby, you baby
|
(I've got a love in my life and my own sweet home)
|
