Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Has got me kinda stressen
I only live to be next to
Through the madness
You remain my greatest pleasure
No one but God
Deserves such love
And If I had
I′ll spend it loving you
And out of all I've experienced
Nothing comes close to this
You′re all I need
Sensitive lover
How beautiful you are
You satisfy my every need
Sensitive lover
You went and raised the bar
From your head to your feet
Girl you so complete
So complete
All the good times
And the bad times
You remained the same
That's why
I'm gonna keep on loving you
Through the joy and pain
I′ve had 9′s and 10's
But I couldn′t find
All the beauty that's in you
Sensitive lover
How beautiful you are
You satisfy my every need
Sensitive lover
You went and raised the bar
From your head to your feet
Girl you so complete
So complete

When the world outside
Despite the stress and chaos outside of my life
Has got me kinda stressen
When it starts getting overwhelming
I only live to be next to
All I want is to be with
Through the madness
Even in the midst of craziness
You remain my greatest pleasure
You are the source of my joy and happiness
No one but God
No one else besides a higher power
Deserves such love
Is worthy of this depth of love
And If I had
If I were given
One night on this earth to spend
Just one final night on this earth
I′ll spend it loving you
I would choose to spend it showing you love
And out of all I've experienced
Of everything I've gone through
Nothing comes close to this
Nothing else compares to the love we share
You′re all I need
All I need is you
Sensitive lover
A caring and gentle partner
How beautiful you are
You are stunning in every way
You satisfy my every need
You fulfill all my desires
You went and raised the bar
You set the standard even higher
From your head to your feet
You are perfect from top to bottom
Girl you so complete
You are everything to me
All the good times
In the happiest moments
And the bad times
And even in the toughest times
You remained the same
You always stayed true to yourself and our love
That's why
That is the reason why
I'm gonna keep on loving you
I will continue to love you forever
Through the joy and pain
Through all the ups and downs
I′ve had 9′s and 10's
I've had attractive and desirable partners before
But I couldn′t find
But none of them could match
All the beauty that's in you
The beauty that radiates from you

I heard this song recently on a deeply buried cd compilation I found in the car… I haven’t heard it in decades but I instantly remembered… I’ve been frantically googling the lyrics and I’ve finally found this song. It’s a lovely song. I just love finding obscure music I vaguely remember from the 90s growing up. Thanks for the upload! Memories!
