Let me be the man who loves you
 

Let me bathe your heart in romance,

Let love lead us where it may,

Let me be the man who loves you,

Not the one who walked away.
 

Let me bring you joy each morning,

Let me close your day with love,

Let me cover you in kisses,

Let me do it more than once.
 

Let me hold you when you're weary,

Let me ease the pain of life,

Let me be the man you turn to,

Let me be your best goodnight.
 

Let me fold my arms around you,

Let me warm your heart anew,

Let me take two steps to heaven,

One for me and one for you.
