When things get rough from day to day for your man

And it's a struggle just to see the long day through

Knowing you will be waiting keeps me going, anticipating

The night with you and the touch of your soft hands



Because the best part of livin' is lovin' you

And it's the drivin' force that keeps me strong in everything I do

And there's nothing more in this whole world

That means as much as your sweet love

'Cause the best part of livin' is lovin' you



Sometimes life's problems seem like mountains I can't climb

But hand in hand our love will always find a way

You're my bridge o'er troubled water you inspire me to try harder

But you're always first, dear, in my heart and mind



Because the best part of livin' is lovin' you

It's the drivin' force that keeps me strong in everything I do

And there's nothing more in this whole world

That means as much as your sweet love

'Cause the best part of livin' is lovin' you
