Lyrics

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 (You're all I need to get by) Tammi, listen Like an eagle protects his nest, for you, I'll do my best Stand by you like a tree, and 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 goal 'Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination You're 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 You're all I need You're all I need To get by Oh, babe Oh, babe Honey, honey, honey, honey, yeah I need you darling Oh, I need you (you're all) All your love (all I need) Oh, oh, oh I love you darling (oh, baby) All I need I need your love (you're all I want) Oh (oh) All you love now (yeah)
