Tekst piosenki
You know I need your love You've got that hold over me Long as I've got your love You know that I'll never leave When I wanted you to share my life I had no doubt in my mind And it's been you woman Right down the line I know how much I lean on you Only you can see The changes that I've been through Have left a mark on me You've been as constant as a Northern Star The brightest light that shines It's been you, woman Right down the line I just want to say this is my way Of tellin' you everything I could never say before Yeah this is my way of tellin' you That every day I'm lovin' you so much more 'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night Put somethin' better inside of me You brought me into the light Threw away all those crazy dreams I put them all behind And it was you, woman Right down the line I just want to say this is my way Of tellin' you everything I could never say before Yeah this is my way of tellin' you That every day I'm lovin' you so much more If I should doubt myself If I'm losing ground I won't turn to someone else They'd only let me down When I wanted you to share my life I had no doubt in my mind And it's been you, woman Right down the line
