You're the inspiration
by Chicago
You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I need You here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind
In my heart
In my soul
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have You near me
I wanna have You hear me sayin'
No one needs You more that I need You
And i know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And i know that I need You here with me
From tonight until the end of time
You should know, everywhere I go
Always on my mind
In my heart
In my soul
You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have You near me
I wanna have You hear me sayin'
No one needs You more that I need You
