Your Man

Let me be clear

Look in my eyes

Don't ask me why

They've gone from brown to blue

Let yourself in

Don't be surprised

In what you find

All that you see is true

I don't want to have a horse in the running

I don't want to spread the news of the storm that is a coming

I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder

I don't want to be young

Be another day older

I don't want to be the son of a better man

I don't want to love you any more than the best I can

I just want to be your man

Old fairy tales built up on lies

Meant to disguise what we have left to lose

Turn me to stone

Offer me twice

Into the fire

Into the fire I choose

I don't want to have a horse in the running

I don't want to spread the news of the storm that is a coming

I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder

I don't want to be young

Be another day older

I don't want to be the son of a better man

I don't want to love you any more than the best I can

I just want to be your man

Your man

Daddy was a fool when he walked out on the wire

Waited for the wind, the wind was on fire

She took him at his word and they never turned back

Never turned back again

I don't want to be a saint on your shoulder

I don't want to be young

Another day older

I don't want to be the son of a better man

I don't want to love you any more than the best I can

I just want, I want, I want to be your man (I wanna be your man)

I don't want to be a horse in the running

But I could spread the news, a new day is coming

All I need to find is the place on your shoulder

Baby we could grow young, yeah we could grow older

We could have a son who's a better man

With baby blues eyes

Don't you understand

I just want to be your man
