LIFE IS HARD AND TIMES ARE TOUGH

AND BEING ALONE IS REALLY ROUGH

YOU'VE WAITED FOREVER AND A DAY

FOR GOD TO SEND TRUE LOVE YOUR WAY



YOU SIT AND WONDER WHAT LIFE WOULD BE LIKE

IF YOU COULD JUST MEET THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE

WELL ONCE IN A LIFETIME YOU FIND SOMEONE

WHO TURNS YOUR LIFE COMPLETELY AROUND



YOU'RE SCARED AT FIRST, BUT YOU SLOWLY ADJUST

TO THE NEW WAY EVERYTHING AROUND YOU LOOKS

YOU GO FROM BEING LONESOME, SAD, AND BLUE

TO ENJOYING JUST BEING THE NEW YOU



YOU THANK GOD EACH AND EVERY DAY

CAUSE YOU NOW HAVE TRUE LOVE THATS HERE TO STAY

YOU CAN'T IMAGINE YOUR LIFE AS IT WAS BEFORE

CAUSE YOU'RE IN LOVE, AND IT JUST DON'T MATTER ANYMORE

YOU THINK YOU'RE ASLEEP AND IT'S ALL JUST A DREAM

BUT BABY WAKE UP CAUSE I'M THE REAL THING
