There I was an empty piece of a shell,

Just mindin' my own world;

Without even knowin' what love and life were all about.



Then you came,

You brought me out of the shell;

You gave the world to me

And before I knew,

There I was so in love with you.



You gave me a reason for my being

And I love what I'm feelin'

You gave me a meaning to my life,

Yes, I've gone beyond existing

And it all began when I met you.



I love the touch of your hair

And when I look in your eyes

I just know, I know I'm on to something good



And I'm sure my love for you will endure

Your love will light up my world;

And take all my cares away with the aching part of me.



You gave me a reason for my being

And I love what I'm feelin'

You gave me a meaning to my life,

Yes, I've gone beyond existing

And it all began when I met you.



You taught me how to love,

You showed me how tomorrow and today

My life is diff'rent from the yesterday;

And you, you taught me how to love

And darling I will always cherish you

Today, tomorrow and forever.



And I'm sure when evening comes around

I know we'll be making love like never before;

My love, who could ask for more?



You gave me a reason for my being

And I love what I'm feelin'

You gave me a meaning to my life,

Yes, I've gone beyond existing

And it all began when I met you.

When I met you.



You gave me a reason for my being

And I love what I'm feelin'

You gave me a meaning to my life,

Yes, I've gone beyond existing

And it all began when I met you.

When I met you.
