Analysis of With You In My Life
Sarah Lateesha Hamilton 1980 (USA)
I thank God every day for his continued grace.
For allowing me to wake up each morning to see your face
You are the sunshine that brightens my day.
With you in my life, I know that everything will be ok.
If only you knew that you are on my mind 24/7.
Whenever I see you, I feel as though I’m in heaven.
Every day I will treat you like a king
Wrapping my body around yours, giving you any and everything.
You’re a respectful man, charming; and down to earth;
You know how to treat a lady, and importantly you understand a woman’s worth.
It’s unbelievable the way you make me feel;
If I had to describe it; I’d simply say, “A feeling that’s unreal.”
Your sexy look drives me wild,
My whole body tingles whenever you smile
It’s amazing how when you look at me it sends a chill down my spine;
every time I stare into your eyes I feel pleasure knowing that you are all mine.
when I need your support, you’ll wipe away my tears.
You’ll help me concur my goals and confront my fears.
Every time we're together, my heart skips a beat.
And with just the sight of you, I get so weak.
Unknowingly I have waited for you all my life.
Instead of shooting me with a love arrow
I feel as though cupid has blessed me with You in my life
