baby, it's been a long day, baby
things ain't been going my way
and now i need you here
to clear my mind all the time

and baby, the way you move me, it's crazy
it's like you see right through me
and make it easier
believe me, you don't even have to try

oh, because
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
ever happened to me

baby, we've come a long way
and baby, you know i hope and i pray
that you believe me
when i say this love will never fade away

oh, because
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
ever happened to me

both of us had no love before
to come on promising like a spring to walk on out the door
our words are strong and our hearts are kind
let me tell you just exactly what's on my mind

you are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
ever happened to me

you are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
you are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
ever happened to me
