You re so rare, you re so fine; I m so glad you re mine.
You re so rare, you re so fine; I m so glad you re mine.

And anytime, I know you re needing; I m going to please you every way I can.
Chorus 2:
You re so rare, you re so fine; I m so glad you re mine.
You re so rare, you re so fine; you ve cleared the questions from my mind.

You helped me deal with what I m feeling, with why and how, I want to live.

You re so rare, man, you re so fine; you know I m so glad you re mine.
You re so rare, man, you re so fine; I m sho nuff glad your mine.
Verse 3:
I have to praise you, when you hold me, when you work your way a-round.
Ain t a part of me left over, that your sweet love ain t found.
You make my moan turn to whisper, you make my whisper, turn to call.
You make me scream and scream that, I love you,
When you, (when you), make me rise and fall.

You re so rare, and you re so fine; I m so very, very glad you re mine.
You re so rare, yu re so fine, oh, (oh), you re mine, you re mine.

You know I want the best for you baby, and what you want, I want for you.
And we can work together baby, to see it, to see it all come true.

Cos you re so rare and you re so fine,
And Lord knows; I m so very glad you re mine.
You re so rare, so rare and you re so very, very fine;
Oh, you cleared all the questions from my mind.
Verse 6:
We ve come a long, long way to-gether,
Through the hard times and the good.
I m going to take this day to celebrate you baby;
Cos I have to stop and praise you, like I should.
Chorus 6:
You re so rare, take yo praise, and you re so fine,
And I hope you know, I m glad you re mine.
Take yo praise; you re so rare, take yo praise; you re so fine...
