I was a sad and lonely guy
Seems no one would hear my cry
Baby baby
Lost in a state of misery
Not a soul to comfort me
Oh baby baby
I couldn't find no help
I didn't know what to do with myself
Girl I was standing in confusion
Badly disillusioned
When you wrapped your arms around me
I knew love had found me
I was lost so lost
But found you in the nick of time
You know I was lost yes I was
Found you in the nick of time
Well I was lost
I thank the Lord that you
Are the girl that 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
Oh 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 oh lost
But found you in the nick of time
You know I was lost ooh
Found you in the nick of time
Well I was
I'm here in desperation
No means of communication
Just looking for a sign
And then you threw out your life line
Oh lost baby
But found you in the nick of time
You know I was lost yes I was
Found you in the nick of time
Girl 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 yes I was
Found you in the nick of time
Well I was lost baby baby
Found you in the nick of time
Well I was out here in desperation
No means of communication
