Got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world
I've got to be there, got to be there
Bring her good times, oh
Then show her that she's my girl
Oh, what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know she loves me
'Cause when I look in her eyes, I realize
I need her sharing her world beside me
So I've got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, hello world! (go to be there, got to be there)
I need her sharing the world beside me
That's why I've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes
And I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home (home, she's home)
(Home, she's home) Yeah
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, oh baby baby, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, got to be there...
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there in the morning
When she says hello to the world
I've got to be there, got to be there
Bring her good times, oh
Then show her that she's my girl
Oh, what a feeling there'll be
The moment I know she loves me
'Cause when I look in her eyes, I realize
I need her sharing her world beside me
So I've got to be there
Got to be there in the morning
And welcome her into my world
And show her that she is my girl
When she says, hello world! (go to be there, got to be there)
I need her sharing the world beside me
That's why I've got to be there
Got to be there where love begins
And that's everywhere she goes
And I've got to be there so she knows
That when she's with me, she's home (home, she's home)
(Home, she's home) Yeah
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, oh baby baby, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
Got to be there, got to be there...
Got to be there, got to be there, to be there
