[Intro]
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh...
Oh-ho, oh-ho, baby, oh-oh-oh, yeah...

[Verse 1]
In the twinkling of an eye
Girl, you had me hypnotized
And I didn't care a thing about love
But I quickly start believin'
'Cause I found myself a reason in you
Yeah, I got a thang for you

[Pre-Chorus]
And when I think
Think of the way I used to be
I was always all alone
Always doing something wrong
And when I think
Think of the change you brought to me
Girl, I wonder why it took you so long

[Chorus]
Well alright
Well okay, baby
I finally done me something right
I got you in my life
Well alright
Well okay, baby
I finally done me something right
I got you, got you, got you in my life

Got you, got you, got you in my life
Got you in my life

[Verse 2]
It was deep within my heart
Where the feelin' had to start
I had reason to believe it was love
And I'm sure that's what it was
'Cause I've never felt so much in me
Yeah, you brought love into me

[Pre-Chorus]
And when I think
Think of they way things used to be
I was always much too cold
I was always all alone
And when I think, baby
Think of the love you brought to me
I don't konw how I could ever got along

[Chorus]
Well alright, alright
Well okay, okay
I finally done me something right
I got you in my life
Well alright, alright
Well okay, okay
I finally done me something right
I got you, got you, got you in my life

[Bridge]
In this wake of happiness
I can't help but feel blessed
From you, baby
'Cause of you, girl
For the first time in my life
I know I've done it right
I fell in love with you, oh...

[Chorus]
Well alright
Well okay, baby
I finally done me something right
Yeah, I got you in my life
Well alright, alright
Well okay, okay
I finally done me something right
I got you, got you in my life

Well alright, alright, baby
Well okay, okay, baby
I finally done me something right
Yeah, I got you in my life
Well alright
Well okay
I finally done me something right
I got you in my life

Well alright, alright
Well okay, okay
I finally done me something right
Yeah, I got you, got you in my life
Well alright, alright
Well okay, okay...

Babyface

Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds (born April 10, 1959 in Indianapolis, Indiana) is a Grammy Award-winning producer, singer, and songwriter responsible for a string of hits in the 1980s and 1990s. He has written and produced more than 20 number-one hits and won 11 Grammys—including three for Producer of the Year—for his work with Boyz II Men, Whitney Houston, Eric Clapton, Alicia Keys, and Toni Braxton, as well as his own work as an artist.

Babyface got his nickname from funk legend Bootsy Collins after joining his backing band in the 1970s. He joined the group Manchild in the late ‘70s—a group that also included his frequent collaborator Daryl Simmons—before moving out West and working with the group The Deele in the early 1980s, forming a bond with his bandmate and future production partner L.A. Reid. After producing the hit “Two Occasions” for The Deele, L.A. & Babyface broke off and became one of the biggest superproducer duos in R&B, rivaling the hits of fellow superproducer duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis.

L.A. & ‘Face had their hands in a string of #1 R&B hits in the late '80s and early '90s from artists such as Pebbles (“Girlfriend”), Karyn White (“Superwoman”), The Whispers (“Rock Steady”), Johnny Gill (“My, My, My”) and many more. They were also instrumental in the success of post-New Edition era Bobby Brown as they produced his #1 hits “Don’t Be Cruel,” “Every Little Step,” “On Our Own,” and “Humpin' Around.” They made history with Boyz II Men in 1992 as they wrote and produced “End of the Road,” which spent a record-breaking 14 consecutive weeks atop the pop chart.
