Various Artists Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We got it together, didn't we?
Nobody but you and me
We got it together, baby
My first, my last, my everything,
And the answer to all my dreams
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're, you're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, my last, my everything
In you I've found so many things,
A love so new, only you could bring
Can't you see if you,
You'll make me feel this way,
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I can love you,
'Till the day I die....
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream
You're my first, my last, my everything
I know there's only one, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl, you're my reality
But I'm lost in a dream,
You're the first, you're the last, my everything
