You're all I need to get by, aah (you're all I need)
(You're all) like sweet mornin' dew
(I need) I took one look at you
(To get by) and it was plain to see
(Aah) you were my destiny

(You're all) with arms open wide
(I need) I threw away my pride
(To get by) I'd sacrifice for you
(Aah) dedicate my life to you

Ooh I'll be gone, when you leave
(C'mon baby)
Always there in times 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've got a love and sure enough that's enough
You're all, you're all I need to get by

You're all I need to get by, ahh
(You're all) like an eagle protects it's nest
(I need) for you I'll do my best
(To get by) stand by you like a tree
(Aah) dare anybody to try and move me

(You're all) darlin in you I've found
(I need) strength when I was torn down
(To get by) don't know what's in store
Aah, together we can open any door

Ooh I only want
What's good for you (c'mon darlin')
And inspire you a little higher
Know you can make a man
Out of the soul that didn't have a goal

Cos we, we got the right foundation
And with love and determination
You're all, you're all I need
Won't stop going, do a little more
You're all, all the joy under the sun
You're number one

You're all, you're ail I need
You're all I need
You're all I need to get by

Oh yeah
Oh baby c'mon, c'mon yeah
C'mon baby
C'mon honey honey honey honey honey
Let me hear it c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon sing it to me
