LYRICS!:

Baby
It's been a long day, baby
Things ain't been going my way
And now i need you here
To clear my mind all the time

And baby
The way you move me, it's crazy
It's like you see right through me
And make it easier
Believe me, you don't even have to try

[chorus]
Oh, because
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
Ever happened to me

Baby
We've come a long way
And baby
You know i hope and i pray
That you believe me
When i say this love will never fade away

[chorus]
Oh, because
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
Ever happened to me

Both of us had no love before
(to come on promising like a spring to walk on out the door)?
Our words are strong and our hearts are kind
Let me tell you just exactly what's on my mind

[chorus x2]
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, baby)
You are the best thing
(you're the best thing, oooh)
Ever happened to me

wow i thought he was black.....white boy got soul

[sweatyone78]

It's refreshing to see such a classic style of music still coming from modern musicians. This song gives me images of dancing in the living room with my man after a long day of work. Good stuff.

Up there with the other Motown hits. Fantastic song.

I will admit I am not familiar with him....but will be now. Great voice. I too thought it must be from 20-30 years ago. First time I heard this, I thought of Terrence Trent D'arby.

@purpleladydragon Rick Astley with style and facial hair

[hipncool07]

We don't get many superb singer/songwriter/musicians like him, he's got it all covered! I've not heard one of his songs that sounded like lower standard fill-in stuff - they're all great! He sings so that you can sing along with him, & I like that when I'm alone I can sing with him. My favorite new artist since he came out with his music!.
