Lyrics
“I Can’t Believe She Gives It All To Me”
‘Cause I’m constantly amazed when I see
Exactly everything I’ve always wanted
But I can’t believe she gives it all to me.
Lips that warm my face with morning kisses
Arms that reach to hold me tenderly
And love that always satisfies completely
But I can’t believe she gives it all to me.
She gives me more than any one man deserves
I ‘ who have everything ‘ am nothing without her
Somehow she knows I need her desperately
I can’t believe she gives it all to me.
