[Verse 1]
If I hadn't quit my ways of wrong, I know what I would have done
I'd kept falling down in life 'til I became no one
But you found me just in time and held my head up high
And showed me the right way I should go and made me realize
[Refrain]
I hadn't reached the end of life; your love would pull me through
Then you made me become the man worth lovin' you
[Chorus]
Yes, you gave me a reason to keep livin'
And made me have some faith in what I do
Yes, you gave me a reason to start givin'
When I became the man worth lovin' you
[Verse 2]
I thought that life had turned on me and made me lose my faith
But I know now it wasn't life that filled my heart with hate
I thought that love had turned me down until you came along
But now I know what real love is; I feel it to the bone
[Refrain]
I hadn't reached the end of life; your love had pulled me through
When you made me become the man worth lovin' you
[Chorus]
Yes, you gave me a reason to keep livin'
And made me have some faith in what I do
Yes, you gave me a reason to start givin'
When I became the man worth lovin' you
[Outro]
When I became the man worth lovin' you
