Marvin Gaye - You’re All I Need to Get By

[Marvin Gaye]

Like sweet morning dew

I took one look at you

And it was plain to see

You were my destiny

[Tammi Terrell]

With my arms open wide

I threw away my pride

I'll sacrifice for you

Dedicate my life to you

I will go where you lead

Always there in time of need

[Marvin]

And when I lose my will

You'll be there to push me up the hill

[Together]

There's no, no looking back for us

We got love sure 'nough, that's enough

You're all, you're all I need to get by

[Marvin]

Like an eagle protects his nest, for you I'll do my best

Stand by you like a tree, dare anybody to try and move me

[Tammi]

Darling in you I found

Strength where I was torn down

Don't know what's in store but together we can open any door

Just to do what's good for you and inspire you a little higher

[Marvin]

I know you can make a man out of a soul that didn't have a goal

[Together]

'Cause we, we got the right foundation and with love and determination

You're all, you're all I want to strive for and do a little more

You're all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one

You're all I need, you're all I need, you're all I need to get by
