Tell me, tell me I'm your man
There's a need inside of me for love and understanding
Standing at your door and feeling in trouble
Don't turn away, baby I'm your man
Hold me, hold me until I smile
I need to feel the touch of your hand
If only for a little while once upon a time we made a
promise
Don't turn away, baby I'm your man
All that love, when love was new we held our hearts in each
other's hands
I gotta love that flows with the seasons baby I'm your
man
Kiss me, kiss me a long, long time
I need to feel your lips pressing up close to mine
Once upon a time we made a promise
Don't turn away, 'cause baby I'm your man
All that love, when love was new we held our hearts in each
other's hands
I gotta love that flows with the seasons
Baby I'm your man
Tell me, tell me I'm your man
There's a need inside of me for love and understanding
Standing at your door and feeling in trouble
Don't turn away, baby I'm your man
Ooh baby, I'm your man

Baby I'm out of breath, we're talkin' our selves to
death
And nothing seem to change, maybe it's best if we parted
It's like the blind leading the blind,
we're even further behind than when we started
I'm tired of talkin', guess it's time to go
Baby I'm so confused and feeling a little bruised
When all we do is fight, we can't help but feel down
hearted
It's like the blind leading the blind
Even further behind then when we started
I'm tired of talkin', guess it's time to go
Baby I'm out of breath, we're talkin' ourselves to death
And nothing seem to change, maybe it's best if we parted
It's like the blind leading the blind
Even further behind then when we started
I'm tired of talkin', guess it's time to go

No need to hide it, or to deny it,
I'll never buy it 'cause I've learned your ways
Come hook or crook you're gonna make it rich
You're gonna scratch it if you got the itch
And the people will know your name
And they'll do your will
At the top of your game
Your the man, the man on top of the hill
You like to tell me, things to compel me
Your gonna sell me, on your best intent
I know your really after fortune and fame
And greed is greed by any other name
You'll get what you want I know
And have time to kill
And every place you go
Your the man, the man on top of the hill
You've got ambition, a strong ambition
Your on a mission to be number one
What ever it takes to get what you deserve
No one can stand against that kind of nerve
And after they've nailed you in
They'll remember you still, the one who just had to win
He's the man, the man on top of the hill
Your the man, way up on top of the hill

Your eyes look out at me and I know what they see
The man who's devoted to you, tryin' to do the right
thing
Your gaze reflects my heart and that's the place we
start
To be devoted to, tryin' to do the right thing
The simple things, they are the magic
In a world of constant change this we know and it's the road
of devotion
That's the one less chosen, in an impulsive world
We could shine a light with our love
It's in your heart and mind and I'll return in kind
To be devoted to, tryin' to do the right thing
The simple things, they are the magic
In a world of constant change this we know and it's the road
of devotion
That's the one less chosen, in an impulsive world
We could shine a light with our love
Your eyes look out at me and I know what they see
The man who's devoted to you, tryin' to do the right
thing
Tryin' to do the right thing

Time was baby when you treated me right
You used to stay at home, now you're stayin' out at
night
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be
alone
You will cry for me, and pray one day that I'll come back
home
Yeah you was spoiled ever since you was a child
Your mother and father let you run wild
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be
alone
You will cry for me, and pray that I'll come back home
When you were down, you treated me like your special
friend
Now you treat me like your little boy,and it's got to
end
Say you was blessed, by the stars up above
You can take care of yourself now , and you don't need my
love
Hey when I leave here, and you find what it means to be
alone
You'll cry for me and prey one day that I come back home

Oh Lordy, Lord
Oh Lordy, Lord
It hurts me so bad, for us to part
Someday baby, ain't gonna worry my life anymore
You're on my mind every place I go and how much I'll miss
you
You'll never know, someday baby ain't gonna worry my life
anymore
Do you remember lyin' on my bed, drinkin' all of that
whiskey, talkin' all out of your head
Someday baby, you ain't gonna worry my life anymore
Goodbye baby, I'm leavin' you now
Don't make much difference, 'cause you never meant me no
good anyhow
Someday baby, ain't gonna worry my life anymore

Nobody knows when it all began, this kind of trouble between
a woman and man
You know the nature of love brings pain
and you tell that you never want to feel that way again
and I seem to be at the heart of all of your problems you
cut me to the bone baby
You cut me to the bone
You know how to make a man feel alone the way you cut me to
the bone
You've gone a long way from loving me
and now you're leaving me in misery forget about it,
all that we've been through you're gonna do the things you
want to do
and you don't want to hear a single word I'm saying
You cut me to the bone, baby, you cut me to the bone
You know how to make a man feel alone the way you cut me to
the bone
Lost in a dream, that's what you are one day you'll wake
up
and see you went too far along with the sunshine
There will be some rain but it was never meant to be in
vain
and you don't want to hear a single word about it
You cut me to the bone, baby, you cut me to the bone
You know how to make a man feel alone the way you cut me to
the bone
You know how to make a man feel alone the way you cut me to
the bone
