Annotations and Meaning:

With such an opening line as "Baby, baby, I've been meaning to tell you," the whole level of personal and intimate communication is set from the very first words. "You make every day a happy day." This recounts the depth of thanksgiving that the partner brings positive effects on the singer's life; hence, thankfulness, love, and joy take precedence. "You make me feel so good / When I'm loving you / And it feels so good / When you're loving me too." All of the preceding repetitions of "You make me feel so good" are then linked and expanded through the chorus, explicating what makes the singer feel so good, involving its dependence on the other's love, satisfaction, and pleasure. It is about the reciprocal nature of love and how it enhances the well-being of both partners. "Time and time again I asked myself, / Am I dreaming or is it for real?" In the very line "time and time again," the poet questions in wonder and disbelief if it could really be his luck to get such a perfect partner. "I hope and pray / There never comes a day / When you leave me here all alone"—This instills fear of loss and possible despair from being without a loved one, thus emphasizing the kind of emotional investment at hand. "So Good" by Jeff Taylor is a song, which talks about one enjoying a love affair. It tells of the changing power of love, how it makes everything in life seem to have a little more shine and appear to be worth a little more. The lyrics touch on joy, gratitude, and even a little fear of loss but underline both all the same, as the values love being celebrated has. It's due to a simple and powerful message, an even underlined melodic harmony, and thus turning it into an anthem for all lovers of those who are linked to their loved ones by the same bond.
