  • It seems like only yesterday you were with somebody else
    Soon as it was over though I had claimed you for myself
    Didn't take me long before I had moved my stuff to yours
    Glad to leave the past behind and I'm glad to close the door

    Because you know I love you
    Because you know I love you

    So far it's been so good and it seems we'll stand the test of time
    You never call me "baby" but you refer to me as "mine"
    What I like the best is how you can keep me on my toes
    Staying home with you is better than sticking things up my nose

    I had that awful feeling
    That I needed help
    My life had lost its meaning
    But you saved me from myself

    As long as I got you and we can be
    Together and forever just you and me
    Well that's swell

    You sleep with your mouth wide open and you go to the pub alone
    You only cook from frozen but I don't ever hear you moan
    You let me lie in bed when you're doing breakfast with the kids
    Landing on my feet with you I'm so happy this is how we live

    Because you know I love you
    Because you know I love you

    I had that awful feeling
    That I needed help
    My life had lost it's meaning
    But you saved me from myself

    As long as I got you and we can be
    Together and forever just you and me
    Well that's swell

    I had that awful feeling
    That I needed help
    My life had lost its meaning
    But you saved me from myself

    As long as I got you and we can be
    Together and forever just you and me
    Well that's swell

    As long as I got you and we can be
    Together and forever just you and me
    Well that's swell

    As long as I got you and we can be
    Together and forever just you and me
    Well that's swell Writer/s: GREGORY ALLEN KURSTIN, KAREN ANN POOLE, LILY ROSE BEATRICE ALLEN
