I’ve been up and I’ve been down
Flown high as the sky and I’ve crashed to the ground
In this crazy world where dreams, they die
When I first met you I knew you were enough
I had to have a lady who was my kind of tough
Listen to me let me tell you what, sometimes
dreams are about all we’ve got, but I found
you, girl you pull me through
You’re the pleasure to ease my pain
My smiling sunshine in the pouring rain, I found
you, girl you pull me through
Raising children in our early years we survived
more than lived
Making sure the babies had all you could give
Being mom and dad while I was at war
You were understanding but so much more
Your strength only surfaces when there is a need
The matriarchal body for this family to heed
Listen to me let me tell you what, sometimes
dreams are about all we’ve got, but I found
you, girl you pull me through
You’re the pleasure to ease my pain
My smiling sunshine in the pouring rain, I found
you, girl you pull me through
