Every man needs a woman who understands
When you need time to be alone
When you need a helping hand
A woman to love, a woman who'll love you back
One who's faithful and honest, loyal and true
Baby, that someone is you
And I'm so glad I've got you in my life today
You're all these things rolled into one
And I'm so proud to say

That you are my woman
My lover, and you are my friend
And I'll do anything for you, baby
You are my woman
My lover, and you are my friend
Oh, yeah

When I get home, you're waiting there for me
With open arms and a kiss "hello"
The moment that I hit the door
Dinner is ready, I hear water running in the bath
And when you're dressed in your favorite lingerie
I know what you want, you don't have to say
Baby, I'm happy, and I'll do anything for you
'Cause we've got something special
That I don't want to lose, oh, no, no, no
You are my woman
(Baby, you're mine)
My lover, and you are my friend
And I'll do anything for you, baby
You are my woman
(Baby, you're mine)
My lover, and you are my friend

My friend, baby, baby

Anything for you, baby
