How did I wake up each day
Before that moment I saw your face?
Where was I before you touch,
No where is where I was without you.
Without you in my life was just a lie
Before you, I don't know how I got by.

Before I met you, before I held you in the night
(I don't know how I survived)
Before I found you, before you made everything right
(I was dead for life)
I wasn't really living 'till you came into my life
I've got to admit it, I don't know how I got by.

How did I get through those nights
Before that moment I held you tight?
Where was I before you kiss?
And how did I exist without you?
Life had no meaning, no reason and no rhyme
Before you, I don't know how I got by.

Before I met you, before I held you in the night
(I don't know how I survived)
Before I found you, before you made everything right
(I was dead for life)
I wasn't really living 'till you came into my life
I've got to admit it, I don't know how I got by.

I thank God when I wake up
I'm waking next to you.
I know what I was living for,
Before you, before you. Oh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Before I met you, before I held you in the night
(I don't know how I survived)
Before I found you, before you made everything right
(I was dead for life)
I wasn't really living 'till you came into my life
I've got to admit it, I don't know how I got by.

Before I met you, I don't know how I got by.
