Lyrics:

Like sweet morning dew I took one look at you

And it was plain to see you where my destiny

With my arms open wide I threw away my pride

I sacrificed for you, dedicated my life to you

Like I would go where you lead

I'll be right there in time of need

And when I lose my will you'll be there to push me up that hill



There's no looking back for us

We've got each other's love and that's enough

Cause you're all I need to get by (chorus sung in Aretha's typical

'run' fashion)



Like an eagle protects his nest for you I'll do my best

Stand by yiu like a tree and dare anybody who tries to move me

Darlin' in you I've found strength where I was torn down

I don't know what's in store but together we can open any door



Just do what's good for you I'll inspire you a little bit higher

I know you can make a wo-man out of soul that didn't have a goal

Cause we've got the right foundation and with the love

and determination (yes we do)

You're all I need to get by (again, with the chorus Aretha does not

'sing it straight,' she ad-libs and improvises into the denoument)
