I was a sad and lonely guy
Say no one would hear my cry baby (Baby)
Lost in a state of misery
Not a soul to comfort me, ooo baby (Baby)
I couldn't find no help
Didn't know what to do with myself
Girl, I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me
I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, yes I was
But found in the nick of time
Oh, I was lost
I thank the Lord that you
Are the girl who came to my rescue, baby (Baby)
Oh, thanks for mending this heart of mine
You came just in time, baby (Baby)
Girl, I couldn't find my way
Don't you hear what I say?
I was standing in confusion
So badly disillusioned
Then you wrapped your arms around me
And I knew love had found me
I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, ooo wee
(So lost)
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
Then you threw out your lifeline
Lost baby, yeah
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, yes I was
(So lost)
But found in the nick of time
I didn't even know you knew me
Oh, but when you walked up to me
Girl, you threw your arms around me
And I knew love had found me
I was lost, so long
But found in the nick of time
You know I was lost, yes I was
But found in the nick of time
Well, I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
