"Thank God You Are My Lady" lyrics

Remember when our bread box
Didn't hold a crumb
I'd look to friends
They'd see me, duck, and run the other way
A few words from you
Put my ego in repair
You gave me hope
In the face of despair everyday

And nights while you lay sleeping
Curled up by my side
I lie awake in the dark
And gazed at you with pride

Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady
Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady (I'm so glad you're my lady)
In my life

I was caught up in the rat race
Of 9 to 5 success
Sometimes I fail at home
To give a happiness and love you need
You could've packed and left
But you made a sacrifice
It makes me more determined now
To give you a better life and succeed

And when people start to ask me
Just what pulled me through
I've got to give you credit
Just where credit is due

(I'd say) Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady
Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady (I'm so glad you're my lady)
In my life

Let me reassure you
Wipe those tears away
I'd be crazy to leave you
For the rest of your life
You'll hear me say

Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady
Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady (I'm so glad you're my lady)
In my life

Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady
Thank God, thank God, thank God
That you're my lady (I'm so glad you're my lady)
In my life
