I’m Glad Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby, when I think about
The day that we first met (The day that we first met)
Wasn't looking for what I found
But I found you and I'm bound to
Find happiness in being around you

[Chorus]
I'm glad when I'm making love to you
I'm glad for the way you make me feel
I love it 'cause you seem to blow my mind
Every time
I'm glad (I'm glad) when you walk (I'm glad), you hold my hand (I'm glad)
I'm happy that you know how to be a man
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you came into my life (I'm glad)
I'm so glad (I'm glad)

[Verse 2]
I dig the way that you get down (You get down thugged out)
And you still know how to hold me (And you still know how to hold me)
Perfect blend, masculine (Can't get enough now)
I think I'm in love, damn, finally

[Chorus]
I'm glad when I'm making love to you
I'm glad for the way you make me feel
I love it 'cause you seem to blow my mind
Every time
I'm glad (I'm glad) when you walk (I'm glad), you hold my hand (I'm glad)
I'm happy that you know how to be a man
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you came into my life (I'm glad)
I'm so glad (I'm glad)
[Bridge]
I'm glad that you (Glad that you)
Turned out to be (Turned out to be)
That certain someone special
Who makes this life worth living (Worth living)
I'm glad you're here (I'm glad that you are here)
Just loving me (Just loving me)
So say that you won't leave (No)
'Cause since the day you came, I've been glad (Glad)

[Chorus]
I'm glad when I'm making love to you
I'm glad for the way you make me feel
I love it 'cause you seem to blow my mind
Every time
I'm glad (I'm glad) when you walk (I'm glad), you hold my hand (I'm glad)
I'm happy that you know how to be a man
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you came into my life (I'm glad)
I'm so glad (I'm glad)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What have the artists said about the music video?
Genius Answer

”I’m Glad” was directed by David LaChapelle. I’d always wanted to work with him… so I reached out and said I had this new song and I wanted it to be a dance video…after he heard it he said we should do “Flashdance”… I said “OK…so like inspired by the movie?” He says “No, exactly like the movie!” LOL! “Oohh…ok”, I said…SO WE DID IT!…We had so much fun recreating the scenes and the styles and putting it to my music!! I was SO into it in one setup, I was just doing the MOST, dancing so hard that I threw out my neck!! We had to stop production and come back 10 days later to finish it!!! Oh well, all’s well that ends well…
