We all know life can be a grind

Eight day weeks and overtime

Thats just the way it is

We all got dreams we're working for

Pushing hard and wanting more

And settling for less



But baby when you love me

You show me

That only one thing really matters

You're love, you're sweet touch

Is the strength that I lean on

They could take it all in a New York minute

It wouldn't matter as long as your in it

My life is complete

Baby when you love me

Baby when you love me



Don't want the rats to win the race

So we keep it at a frantic pace

Can't afford to fall behind

Ain't that just the way it goes

Traffic jam on my way home

But I just shake my head and smile



Cause baby when you love me

You show me

That only one thing really matters

You're love, you're sweet touch

Is the strength that I lean on

They could take it all in a New York minute

It wouldn't matter as long as your in it

My life is complete

Baby when you love me

Baby when you love me

Aw baby when you love me



When I finally get home to you

Everything that I've been through

Slowly drifts away



Baby when you love me

You show me

That only one thing really matters

You're love, you're sweet touch

Is the strength that I lean on

They could take it all in a New York minute

It wouldn't matter as long as your in it

My life is complete

Baby when you love me

Baby when you love me

Aw baby when you love me
