Warmer than sunshine, baby
Sweeter than tears
That’s how my life has been
Since you first appeared
You opened up my heart
To everything fine
You put a light inside me
And you made me shine

From the time I met you everything came true
All I ever dreamed
I found in you

Ooh, you got it
There’s no way
I’m gonna live without it
Nothin’ can stop it
I’m all yours
‘Cause baby you got it all

You keep me movin’ baby
To the beat of your drum
I love what you’re doin’
And where you’re comin’ from
And when you hold me baby
It’s like we are one
‘Cause you got a motion
That gets me all undone

When you took my life and turned it all around
Ooh, you got me flying
Don’t take me down

Ooh, you got it
There’s no way
I’m gonna live without it
Nothin’ can stop it
I’m all yours
‘Cause baby you got it all

You know I can’t control
For what I feel in my soul
My heart is full of you
All I wanna do is to love you
Love you the rest of my life

Keep it comin’
Don’t stop now
Spread your love around me
Do it now, do it now

Ooh, you got it
There’s no way
I’m gonna live without it
Nothin’ can stop it
I’m all yours
‘Cause baby you got it all

Ooh, you got it
There’s no way
I’m gonna live without it
Nothin’ can stop it
I’m all yours
‘Cause baby you got it all

Ooh, you got it
