Songwriter: Dann Huff Michael W. Smith Amy Grant

You were pretty crazy
Back when we fell in love
Wanting to be everything
That I would be proud of
Hours we spent dreaming
How we'd beat the odds
Now the truth has hit us
Life is very hard
Life can be so hard

Chorus:
I love you
Deeper than I ever dreamed of
I need you. (I need you.)
Staying here 'til we can work it out
I want you
Knowing that through all the changes
I love you. (I love you.)
Somehow I just had to tell you now

(Yeah)
Oh, to stay your princess
If I only could
If you never saw the rotten;
Only saw the good
You'd still be prince charming
But we would never know
How it's in the darkest times
True love finally grows
Come on true love grow

(Repeat Chorus)
You got me, I got you
Sometimes it takes a little working through
But I can tell you now...

(Repeat Chorus Twice)
(I need you.)
(I love you.)
(I need you.)
(I love you.)

Amy Grant

By the time Amy Grant was nineteen, she was Contemporary Christian music’s most celebrated singer. Grant grew up in the Church of Christ where she sang for God two nights a week. As a teen, she decided to pursue a career in music, writing her first song while attending devotional meetings at her high school.

Grant recorded a demo while working as an intern at a recording studio and the owner was so impressed he signed her to his own label and released her first album Amy Grant in 1977. It spawned three top 10 songs on Billboard’s Christian Songs chart.

The following year, Grant began touring while balancing college studies. Her second album My Father’s Eyes was released in April 1979. At its record release party, she met future first husband gospel singer Gary Chapman. He’d written its title track, and it would become her first of many Christian Songs Chart-toppers. Her third album Never Alone came out in 1981 and features the #3 Christian Songs hit “Look What Has Happened To Me”.
