Verse 1
Runnin’ around
I’ve spent my whole life runnin’ around
Settlin’ down
I never dreamed I’d be settlin’ down

But something’s comin’ over me
Woman, you have got a hold on me
And the reason just might be
You’re so good to me

Chorus:
Somebody’s doin’ me right
Somebody’s holdin’ me tight
Sharin’ my days and my nights
Somebody I really like
Just took a hold of my hand
You make me feel like a man
There’s been a change in my life
Somebody’s doin’ me right

It’s alright
Oh girl it’s alright

Verse 2
Set in my ways
Thinkin’ that love would only get in my way
But now I’m wantin’ to stay
I like this feelin’ of wantin’ to stay

Really it’s no mystery
What brought all this change in me
You’re the one who made me see
How love was meant to be
