For all the times I felt cheated, I complained
You know how I love to complain
For all the wrongs I repeated, though I was to blame
I still cursed that rain
I didn’t have a prayer, didn’t have a clue
Then out of the blue
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why (didn’t know why)
Now I do, ’cause God gave me you
For all the times I wore my self-pity like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in that hurt
For every glass I saw, I saw half-empty
Now it overflows like a river through my soul
From every doubt I had, I’m finally free
And I truly believe
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why (didn’t know why)
Now I do (now I finally do), ’cause God gave me you
In your arms, I’m someone new
With every tender kiss from you
I must confess, I’ve been blessed
God gave me you to show me what’s real
There’s more to life than just how I feel (just how I feel)
And all that I’m worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for though I didn’t know why (didn’t know why)
Now I do (now I finally do), ’cause God gave me you
