How Did I Get By Without You? Lyrics By John Waite

    there was a time
    when i thought i knew
    everything about
    this great big world
    until i met you
    into my life
    like a brand new sun
    now i find my home
    inside your eyes
    wherever you are
    it’s hard to say it
    cause i hide things so good
    but you make me say it
    like only you could
    i love you
    more than any man could ever say
    i need you
    baby let me count the ways
    and i’ll be here
    i believe in everything you do
    so how did i get by without you
    for the longest time
    playing games of solitaire
    taking my wine
    but now i’m with you baby
    and i can dream out loud
    you’re as pretty as a picture
    and you make me so proud
    it’s hard to say it
    cause i hide things so good
    but you make me say it
    like only you could
    i love you
    more than any words could ever say
    i need you
    baby let me count the ways
    and i’ll be here
    there’s nothing in this world i couldn’t do
    so how did i get by without you
    you love me
    now i know that i’m the lucky guy
    you’ve got me
    and there’s nowhere i can hide
    so i’ll be here
    i believe that all my dreams came true
    so how did i get by without you
    in the morning light
    to see you wake up next to me
    it’s a beautiful sight
    now everything’s alright
    yeah
    i love you
    more than any words could ever say
    i need you
    baby let me count the ways
    and i’ll be here
    i believe in everything you do
    so how did i get by without you
    you love me
    now i know that i’m the lucky guy
    you’ve got me
    and there’s nowhere i can hide
    so i’ll stay here
    i believe in everything you do
    so how did i get by without you
    how did i get by
    how did i get by without you in my world
    how did i get by without you as my girl
    you’re beautiful
    beautiful
    so how did i get by without you
    without you
    without you
