i've had my share
of life's ups and downs
but fate's been kind
the downs have been few
i guess you could say
that i've been lucky
and i guess you could say
it's all because of you
if anyone should ever write
my life story
for whatever reason
there might be
you'd be there between each line
of pain and glory
cause you're the best thing
that ever happened to me
you're the best thing
that ever happened to me
lord there have been times
when times were so hard
but always somehow
i made it through
and for every moment
i've spent hurting
there was a moment i spent
loving you
if anyone should ever write
my life story
for whatever reason
there might be
you'd be there between each line
of pain and glory
cause you're the best thing
that ever happened to me
you're the best thing
that ever happened to me
