Lyrics Michael McDonald

Michael McDonald

You're All I Need to Get By

Like the sweet morning dew,

I took one look at you,

And it was plain to see you were my destiny.

With my arms open wide, I threw away my pride.

I'll sacrifice for you dedicate my life for you.

I will go where you lead always there in time of need.

And when I lose my will you'll be there to push me up the hill.

There's no, no looking back for us, we got love sure 'nough, that's enough.

You're all, you're all I need to get by.

Like an eagle protects his nest for you I'll do my best,

Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me.

Darlin' in you I found strength where I was torn down

Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door.

Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher.

I know you can make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goal.

'Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination.

You're all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more.

All, all the joys under the sun wrapp'd up into one.
