I remember just before we met
That every night and day
I had to live the life
Of a lonely one
I remember meeting you
Discovering love could be so cool
When it's shared by two
Instead of the lonely one
When you said you love me
We could not be parted
Said I build my world around you
I'm so thankful that I found you
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever
I've never felt like this before
Loving you has made my life so more sweeter than ever
Each night I said we'd never part
For all the love within my heart grows stronger
From day to day
As best I can, and how I try
To reassure you and satisfy
'Cause I'd be lost if you went away
'Cause I really need you
And I need for you to need me too
I built my world around you
I'm so thankful that I've found you
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever
Loving you has made my life so more sweeter than ever
'Cause I really love you
And I'm thankful that you love me too
I have built my world around you
I am truly glad, I found you
Because loving you has made my life sweeter than ever
Loving you has made my life so more sweeter than ever
I never felt like this before
Loving you has made my life so more sweeter than ever

Bryan Ferry (born September 26 1945) is an English singer, songwriter and musician who rose to prominence as the lead singer and main songwriter for the influential art/glam rock band Roxy Music.

Ferry’s unique vocal style puts a wry, sophisticated spin on the sound of the crooners of the mid 20th-century. An accomplished songwriter, his solo career also saw him singing celebrated covers of the Great American Songbook and jazz standards. On his seminal 1973 solo album These Foolish Things he also covered ’60s hit rock songs like the Rolling Stones' “Sympathy for the Devil” and the Beatles “You Won’t See Me,” establishing something of the formula for his solo albums until the 1980s.

He dated model Jerry Hall, before her marriage to Mick Jagger. Their break up inspired his 1978 solo album The Bride Stripped Bare. After putting Roxy Music on hiatus 1982, Ferry released Boys and Girls in 1985, featuring original material. Ferry’s solo career has extended into the new millennium with a collection of Bob Dylan covers entitled Dylanesque. His 2014 album Avonmore returns to his classic Roxy Music sound.
