There I was an empty piece of a shell
Just minding my own world
Without even knowing

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


[refrain]
You gave me a reason for my being

And I love what I'm feeling
You gave me a meaning to my life
Yes, I'm gone beyond existing

And it all begun 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 where they can't bother me

[repeat refrain]


[chorus]
You taught me how to love

You showed me a tomorrow and today, my love
That's different from the yesterday I knew
You taught me to love and darling,

I will always cherish you
Today, tomorrow and forever


[instrumental]

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


[repeat refrain]
