The Man Who Loves You

I know this world don’t treat you right
Day in, day out, it’s a fight
I know you dream of an escape
Some superman to kill the pain

I wish that I were born that strong
Wish I could wave some magic wand
But I can hold you all night long
Ain’t that enough?

I am just the man who loves you
I can’t grow no wings
Fly you away from things

I can’t clear the clouds above you
But I can stand this ground
Won’t be turned around
Cause baby I’m the man who loves you

If I’m the rock and not the rain
If I’m the dirt, not the flame
If I’m the bass note underneath
Not some high, sweet melody

If all that glitters lets you down
If it can’t block the next day’s sun
Baby, I’ll still be around
Ain’t that enough?

I am just the man who loves you
I can’t grow no wings
Fly you away from things

I can’t clear the clouds above you
But I can stand this ground
Won’t be turned around
Cause baby I’m the man who…

When it’s dark, when everything
Falls apart
Still sees your pure, clear, perfect heart
