you're a pick me up when i'm down and out
standing by my side without a doubt
things i don't understand, you've figured out
oh, baby, you bring me right to my knees, at times you're just a tease
for my weary eyes you're such a lovely sight
and i know everything's gonna be all right

you're a clear road sign when i've lost my way
in the breakdown lane on a lone highway
like an exit ramp leading towards a brighter day
oh, baby, you lead me back to my home, so i don't have to roam
you keep the front porch light burning bright
and i know everything's gonna be all right

you're a quiet home port when i come off the sea
battered from the waves of society
with only one last grasp of my sanity
oh, baby, you're like a fire burning warm, in the heart of a storm
then your love it wraps around me tight
and i know everything's gonna be all right

so i laugh in wild amazement as i pound out the miles across the pavement
in my mind you shine with the luster of a pearl
and i know you never thought it, but there's no way i could have bought it
so you really must be god's gift to my world

you're a melody when my heart longs to sing
like a choir of angels doing their thing
coming down from heaven i can hear it ring
oh, baby, goes floating by on the breeze, it's even shaking the trees
(not to mention my knees)
then i thank god for you with all my might
'cause i know everything, i know everything's gonna be all right
