Lee Fields & The Expressions – Blessed With The Best lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I had all the money I could spend
But didn't have you as my best friend (Take the money!)
Diamonds and gold won't satisfy my soul
Only you can make me whole, honey
I don't need those things, cars, boats, and rings
Only the sweet love you bring
'Cause you and I, can't you see?
We were meant to be

[Chorus]
'Cause I've been blessed with the best of you
I’ve been blessed with the best of you
To you, love, I'll always be true
'Cause I'm blessed with the best of you

[Verse 2]
Day after day, our love continues to grow
Like a beautiful flower in a garden
We weather the storm of winter's cold
Yet our bond continues to harden
I believe in you, you believe in me
They can have it all—just let us be (Let us be! Let us be!)
Material things, you can't take 'em to the grave
Our love will last longer than anything ever made, yeah!

[Chorus]
'Cause I've been blessed with the best of you
I've been blessed with the best of you
To you, love, I'll always be true
I've been blessed with the best of you

[Verse 3]
Day after day, our love grows
When I think it's grown, you show me more
Much more than the day before
When I think it's impossible to love you more
I'm loving you more

[Outro]
Woah, I've been blessed (Blessed by you)
Yeah, I've been blessed (Blessed by you)
I've been blessed (Blessed by you)
With the best of you (Blessed)
Oh, with the best of you (By you)
I've been blessed (Blessed by you)
Can't you see?
I've been blessed (Blessed)
And I could never, never thank you enough
