I never let you know before
But now I must confess
That only in your living arms

Could I find happiness
Yes it's taken quite a while
To show you how I feel

I just wanted to be sure
My love for you was real


God gave me love
God gave me you, girl
God gave me love

God gave me you, girl
God gave me love
God gave me you, girl

God gave me love
God gave me you, girl


Perhaps I've lingered over time
It may be just too late
You may have chosen someone else

More suited to your taste

God gave me love

God gave me you, girl
God gave me love
God gave me you, girl

God gave me love
God gave me you, girl
God gave me love

God gave me you, girl

But if I have only one chance

What I hope will be
Let God perform a miracle
Of giving, of giving you to me


God gave me love
God gave me you, girl

God gave me love
God gave me you, girl
God gave me love

God gave me you, girl
God gave me love
God gave me you, girl
