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 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
