Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You know I need your love

You got that hold over me

Long as I've got your love

You know that I'll never leave

When I wanted you to share my life

[Chorus]

I had no doubt in my mind

And it's been you, woman

Right down the line

[Verse 2]

I know how much I lean on you

Only you can see

The changes that I've been through

Have left a mark on me

You've been as constant as a Northern star

[Chorus]

The brightest light that shines

It's been you, woman

Right down the line

[Verse 3]

I just wanna say this is my way

Of tellin' you everything

I could never say before

Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you

That every day, I'm lovin' you

[Verse 4]

So much more

'Cause you believed in me

Through my darkest night

Put somethin' better inside of me

You brought me into the light

I threw away all those crazy dreams

[Chorus]

I put them all behind

And it was you, woman

Right down the line

[Verse 5]

I just wanna say this is my way

Of tellin' you everything

I could never say before

Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you

That every day, I'm lovin' you

[Verse 6]

So much more

If I should doubt myself

If I'm losin' ground

I won't turn to someone else

They'd only let me down

When I wanted you to share my life

[Chorus]

I had no doubt in my mind

And it's been you, woman

Right down the line
