Yeah
Baby a moment with you is like heaven
Yes... baby
Said I know, yes I know, yes I knoaaaooow
Everything is you
From the rising to the setting
It's you
And I know there's no regretting

Cause you
(Are such magical?)
You're my super woman
And still my baby joy
When you give me strength
And I give you love
There ain't no problem
That we can't solve
Together as one (together as one)
That's what I dream of
Together, forever
I need you more than the rain
Need you for me to sustain
Honey I love you like that
(Zen my everything?) [(Zen my everything?)]
From the moment I say go
It's you
I know you love me and it shows
Cause you
I don't know where you would be
You never leave lonely
I see you everywhere
I see your face
Various Sun
And in the moonlight
When?????
I thank you for this time
And as we go on
Together, forever yeah
I need you more than the rain
Need you for me to sustain
Honey I love you like that
What we have is perfect
in every way
Like the sun sets every day
When I see you I feel good
Life coming up???
I need you more than the rain
Need you for me to sustain
Honey I love you like that
Aaaah, aaah I love you yes
I need you more than the rain
Need you for me to sustain
Honey I love you like that
Yes I do, yes I do
I need you
I need you more than the rain

Need you for me to sustain
Honey I love you like that
