I Don't Know How I Got By

How did I wake up each day
Before that moment I saw you face?
Where was I before your touch?
Nowhere is where I was

Without you, without you in it, my life was just a lie
And 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 half alive)
I wasn't really living till you came into my life
I got through, babe, well, 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 your kiss
And I how did I exist without you?

Life had no meaning, no reason and no rhyme
And 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 half alive)
I wasn't really living till you came into my life
I got through, babe, I don't know how I got by

Thank God when I wake each day
Awaken next to you
Don't know what I was living for
Before you, before you

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 half alive)

I wasn't really living till you came into my life
I got through, babe, but I don't know how I got by
Before I found you, I don't know how I got by
