I was alone in the dark when I met ya
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh
You took my hand and you told me you loved me
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh
I was alone, there was no love in my life
(I was alone, there was no love in my life)
I was afraid of life and you came in time
(I was afraid of life and you came in time)
You took my hand and we kissed in the moonlight
(You took my hand and we kissed in the moonlight)
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh
I like the way how you’re holdin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you’re holdin’ me
I like the way you’re lovin me’
It doesn’t matter how you are lovin’ me
I like the way how you’re touchin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you are touchin’ me
I like the way how you’re kissin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you are kissin’ me
You’ll seeeee…
…it won’t be long ’til we make vows, I bet ya
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh
I thank the Heavens above that I met ya
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh
I was alone, there was no love in my life
(I was alone, there was no love in my life)
I was afraid of life and you came in time
(I was afraid of life and you came in time)
You took my hand and we kissed in the moonlight
(You took my hand and we kissed in the moonlight)
Uuuuuuuuuuh
I like the way how you’re lovin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you are holdin’ me
I like the way how you’re holdin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you re lovin’ me
I like the way how you’re touchin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you are touchin’ me
I like the way how you’re kissin’ me
It doesn’t matter how you are kissin’ me
The world’s a better place
’cause you came in time,
You took away the rain and brought the sunshine,
I was afraid ’cause I was hurt the last time,
Uuuuuuuuuuh Ahhhhhhhh.
I like the way how you’re holdin’ me,
It doesn’t matter how you are holdin’ me,
I like the way how you’re lovin’ me,
It doesn’t matter how you are lovin’ me,
I like the way how you’re touchin’ me,
It doesn’t matter how you are touchin’ me,
I like the way how you’re kissin’ me,
It doesn’t matter how you are kissin’ me,
You’ll seeeee.
Uuuuuuuuuuh uuuuuuh [12x]

…Michael would express to me the importance of giving the world a gift. Giving them songs that would last forever. This song was released in its early stages of development. He wanted to revisit, nurture, and define the song more because MJ was a perfectionist at everything and nothing is ever done until he is smiling and dancing! It was like watching a flower grow and blossom in the spring. May this song make you smile like I did…
