It's a little bit fUnny Lord, this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but, boy, if I did I'd buy a big mansion where we both could live

Thanks for saving my life For picking me up, dusting me off Making me feel like I'm living again (Like I'm living again)
I'm so glad I ran into you If I hadn't seen you I would have been through
I was low as low could go Could not stand anymore Oh, I could never, never Never, never repay you
I'm so grateful for all the things You've done for me Especially listening to my problems Then saving me from misery
I just wanna say, thank you, baby, for saving my life For picking me up, dusting me off Making me feel like I'm living again (Like I'm living again)
I'm so glad you came along You stopped me from singing That sad, sad song
You're the one who erased the pain My life would never be the same You're the very one, that only one That I've been waiting for
I wanna thank you For listening to all of my problems And being my shelter In and out of the storm
I just wanna say, thank you, baby, for saving my life For picking me up, dusting me off Putting me all back together, together, together (Together, together, together)
I can live (I can live) Since I found you, baby (I can live, I can live) Now I can live (I can live) Since I got you back, baby
I just wanna say Thank you, baby, for saving my life (For saving this man) For picking me up, dusting me off (Don't you understand, what you're doing to me)
Thank you for saving my life (We both hooked up, we played together) For picking me up, dusting me off (I can't live, I can't live without you, babe) Didn't you, didn't you, didn't you, didn't you save me
Stayed in bed all mornin' just to pass the time. There's somethin' wrong here, there can be no denyin'. One of us is changin', or maybe we've just stopped tryin'.
And it's too late, baby now, it's too late, though we really did try to make it. Somethin' inside has died, and I can't hide, and I just can't fake it, oh, no, no.
It used to be so easy, livin' here with you. You were light and breezy, an' I knew just what to do. Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool.
And it's too late, baby now, it's too late, though we really did try to make it. Somethin' inside has died, and I can't hide, and I just can't fake it, oh, no, no.
There'll be good times again for me and you, but we just can't stay together; don't you feel it too? Still I'm glad for what we had and how I once loved you.
And it's too late, baby now, it's too late, though we really did try to make it. Somethin' inside has died, and I can't hide, and I just can't fake it, oh, no, no. no, no, no, no.
