I've been a walking heartache,
I've made a mess of me.
The person that I've been lately
Ain't who I wanna be.
You stay here right beside me,
Watch as the storm blows through,
And I need you.
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
For when I think I've lost my way,
There are no words here left to say.
It's true:
God gave me you.
There's more here than what were seeing,
A divine conspiracy,
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me.
You'll always be love's great martyr,
I'll be the flattered fool.
And I need you.
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
For when I think I've lost my way,
There are no words here left to say.
It's true:
God gave me you.
On my own I'm only
Half of what I could be--I
Can't do without you.
We are stitched together,
And what love has tethered--I
Pray we never undo.
Final Chorus:
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
God gave me you for the ups and downs.
God gave me you for the days of doubt.
For when I think I've lost my way,
There are no words here left to say.
It's true:
God gave me you.
