I was down and out, and living on my luck
Even that was wearing thin
Turned around one day and you were standing there, babe
You made my life begin

You're the only reason I'm living
I'm loving every minute with you, yeah
You're the reason I'm living
And I owe it all to you

I was lonely, I was down, and I was broke
'Bout as low as a man could be
You picked me up and you saved me, baby
'Cause you believed in me, yes you did

You're the only reason I'm living
I'm loving every minute with you, yeah
You're the reason I'm living
And I owe it all to you, yeah

I'm looking back all things going down
You made me strong
Baby, showed me how to get along
You know you did

Now I stand up straight and hold my head up high
I'm as proud as any man could be
See I've got everything that a man could want to have
Because of you and me, whoa oh
You're the only reason I'm living
I'm loving every minute with you, yes I am
You're the reason I'm living
And I owe it all to you, yeah

You're the only reason I'm living
Loving every minute with you
You're the reason I'm living
And I owe it all to you, yeah

Yes, I owe it
You know I owe it
Baby, baby, baby, baby
