Through all these years
You've always been there
And we've been through hard times
Still somehow you care

Fighting through our fears
And holding back the tears
I still love you
More and more each day

I'm searching for the words
The right things to say
And I knew right from the start
We'd never ever part

Oh, sweet lady
You've become my everything
Ooh, baby
You're the light inside of me
Sweet lady
Now forever we will be together

Our love has grown
As our lives have changed
Just like the southern spring
Pushing back the rain
And the seasons come and go
But one thing remains for sure

Oh, sweet lady
You've become my everything
Ooh, baby
You're the light inside of me
Sweet lady
Now forever we will be

And one thing I know for sure
You're worth fighting for

Oh, sweet lady
You've become my everything
Ooh, baby
You're the light inside of me
Sweet lady
Now forever we will be

Sweet lady
