Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come to me, come to me, hey yeah

So long I've searched, so hard to find
The one that could be all the time
And there you were, the love for me
Finally someone that would make me feel

Ooh, joy is the one thing

I had not found
But sweet as the morning dew your
Your love rained down

More precious than an angel you're
You're heavenly
Happiness is all I've known
Since you said these words to me

I got everything you need
(Love is right here)
And I'm a lover from A to Z
(Waiting right here, baby)

And she said come to me
Oh my baby, come to me
(Come to me)

Giving you all I have
(Love is right here)
'Cause I want this love to last
(Rock that love for me)
Oh my baby, oh my darling baby
Come to me, come to me, come to me

I woke up to find that you're next to me
So good to know you're, you're there, baby
I feel your touch ooh and your embrace
Time is now, oh baby, I can't breathe, my love

Now that we, more and more
I'm starting to realize
My heaven is right there in your eyes
In your eyes, those pretty eyes

Oh my, my, precious little angel
Your warmth is so, so heavenly
Happiness is all I've known
Since you made sweet love to me

I got everything you need
