Lyrics[]

Tina:
For all those times you stood by me,
For all the truth that you made me see,
For all the joy you brought to my life,
For all the wrong that you made right,
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all

Tina with New Directions:
You were my strength when I was weak,
You were my voice when I couldn't speak,
You were my eyes when I couldn't see,
You saw the best there was in me,
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed

I'm everything I am
Because you loved me, ooh, baby
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky

Tina:
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe, I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because
I was loved by you

New Directions:
You were my strength when I was weak (Tina: You were my strength)
You were my voice when I couldn't speak

Tina with New Directions:
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Tina:
You were always there for me, the tender wind that carried me
The light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

New Directions (Tina):
You were my strength when I was weak (You were my strength)
You were my voice when I couldn't speak (Ohh, when I couldn't speak)
You were my eyes when I couldn't see

Tina with New Directions:
You saw the best there was in me

New Directions (Tina):
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach (Ohh)
You gave me faith 'cause you (Tina with New Directions: believed)

Tina with New Directions:
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

Tina:
Hey!

New Directions (Tina):
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
(My eyes)
You were my eyes when I couldn't see

Tina with New Directions:
You saw the best there was in me

New Directions (Tina):
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach (Ohhh)
You gave me faith 'cause you believed (believed)

Tina:
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me, ooh
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me
