LYRICS:

You know I need your love
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line

I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you woman
Right down the line

I just wanna say this is my way
Of telling you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of telling you
That every day I'm loving you so much more
Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put something better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you woman
Right down the line

I just wanna say this is my way of telling you everything
I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of telling you
Everything I could never say before
Yeah this is my way of telling you
That every day I'm loving you so much more

If I should doubt myself, if I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you woman
Right down the line

A great cover should respect and pay homage to the original melodies but still make it unique. This is a great cover.

[iansutton]

Its rare for a song about enduring love to have such a solemn tone. This cover has always made me reflect on how the most beautiful and moving parts of love are commitment and trust.

[danieller]

One of my favorite songs, Love y'alls song Turn it Around. Never knew y'all covered this song! Great find!

[charlotteroberts]

I heard Lucius on NPR a couple of years ago. I was hooked and now my son is. Truly the best vocals.

[davidking]

The harmonies during the bridge are absolutely outstanding!

[mandytroxel]

Nice to hear someone cover a great song Gerry Rafferty was the best

[robertbinder]

A huge compliment to the two ladies, who are an integral part of Roger Waters' shows and songs. Your voices are unique, love it, thank you very much.

A friend of a friend sent me here. I did not know Lucius, and I am very critical when it comes to cover versions. However, this is supremely worthy! Count me a new Lucius fan.

[janinasesmith]

Great version of an amazing song from the late and wonderful Gerry Rafferty.. .

[elphaba.]

What a beautiful cover, got me crying like a baby!

[santiagoteixeira]

Such an amazing cover. Lucius... Im such a fan of your art. Lisbon is waiting for you...

[steveetienne]

Very rare for a cover to equal the original. A beautiful rendition that has brought tears to my eyes.

[gregthiess]

🥀 Absolutely gorgeous amazing lyric's...

[howdyyall]

I am glad so many like this version. the song itself is such a gorgeous offering of love from a man to his wife. I care more for the original. The vocals are nice, but the original seems so intimate that I can imagine my love looking into my eyes and saying those lyrics genuinely when we are alone, and I just don't get that out of this version. Maybe I can't get past the floating heads cut into waving strips.

[russellsage]
