You surely must know magic, girl,
Because you changed my life.
It was dull and ordinary,
You made it sunny and bright.
I was blessed the day I found you.
I'm gonna build my whole world around you.
You're everything good, girl,
And you're all that matters to me.

When my way was dark,
And trouble was near,
Your love provided the light
So I could see, girl.
Just knowing your love was near,
When times were bad,
Kept the world from closing in on me.
I was blessed the day I found you.
I'm gonna build my whole world around you.
You're everything good, girl,
And you're all that matter to me.

Baby, you're part of every thought I think each day.
Your name's in every phrase my lips say.
Every dream I dream is about you,
Baby I couldn't live without you.
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby.
You're my everything.
You're my everything.

You're the girl I sing about
In every love song I sing.
You're my winter, baby,
My summer, my fall and spring.
I was blessed the day I found you.
I'm gonna build my whole world around you.
You're everything good, girl
And you're all that matters to me.
You're my everything.
You're my everything (fade out).

men through many a dreadful night."
