We Couldn't Get Along Without You lyrics

Hi Berry, this is Diane, this is Mary, Florence
And on behalf of everyone at Motown
We also wish to extend our congratulations

We couldn't get along without you
Just couldn't feel the song without you
Without your hand to guide our way

We'd all be lost somewhere in yesterday
We need your strength, we need your courage too
We need your constant faith to see us through

We couldn't get along without you
Just couldn't feel the song without you
You gave us hope when all our hope was gone
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/d/diana_ross/we_couldnt_get_along_without_you.html ]
With wise and patient hands you kept hanging on
When things were dark, you brought us shining light
Words cannot express the way we feel tonight

Berry, on behalf of the people at home
And the people all over this country
To whom you are a shining example

Our deepest congratulations and of course our deepest love
We need you now more than before
Success is one thing but you taught us much more

We couldn't get along without you
Just couldn't feel the song without you
The world should know the man inside

Who worked with courage and a deep sense of pride
Your strong and guiding hand has shown us the way
From those who love you most we just want to say

We couldn't get along without you
Just couldn't feel the song without you
