    you know i’ve been through so many changes in my life girl
    aw i’ve been up real high where i thought i didn’t need anybody
    aw and then again i’ve been down real low where there was no one in my life who needed me
    aw and i found that material things i thought had so much value
    aw girl didn’t really have any value at all
    then i was a lonely man
    a man with no direction with no purpose with no one to love and no one to love me for for me
    aw girl then you then you came into my life
    you made my jagged edges smooth
    you made my whoo my direction so clear
    and you aw woman you became my purpose my reason for living
