Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover

That old dog has chained you up alright
Give you everything you need
To live inside a twisted cage
Sleep beside an empty rage

I had a dream I was your hero

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Open up on the inside gonna fill you up gonna make you cry

This monkey can't stand to see you black and blue
Give you something sweet each time you
Come inside my jungle book
What is it just too good
Don't say you'll stay
'Cause then you go away

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover

If I was your girl believe me
I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
We could groove along and feel much better
I could do it forever and ever
Give me an hour to kiss you
Walk through heaven's door I'm sure
We don't need no doctor to feel much better
Let me in
Forever and ever and ever and ever

I sat on a mountainside with peace of mind
I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
Walked for days with no one near
And I return as chained and bound to you

Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you till the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother I will
Do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover

Just open up I'm gonna come inside I wanna fill you up I wanna make you cry.....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Gettin' on the subway and I'm comin' uptown....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Standing on a street corner waiting for my love to change....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Feelin' like a school boy, too shy and too young....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Open up I wanna come inside I wana fill you up I wanna make you cry....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Gettin' on my camel and I'll ride it uptown....
(Damn I wish I was your lover)
Hanging around this jungle, wishing that this.....

Then...
I´ll...
be

Right Beside You !

I'm dancing in the shadows of life
And death is all around me tonight
I miss you making love to me right
Beside myself I'm holding you tight
Someone is waiting for me to rise
And dive into the ocean I cried
And I cried and I cried my baby to sleep
Beside myself my soul to keep

Right beside you I see
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Right beside you always

We're dancing in the shade of the summer sun
The drums are playing the change to come
Was yesterday in the heat
Beside myself I need to keep

Right beside you I feel
Right beside you I am
Right beside you I kneel (beside you)
Right beside you I stand
Right beside you I see (oooh)
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Right beside you always

Driving into town with the top down
Sun sinking low into the water I can feel your speed
One hand on the wheel one hand on my knee
I can tell you what I want you can tell me what you need
Darling nights are getting cooler and the city's so close
There's a place we can do it somewhere right along the coast
We'll arrive on time just a little bit late
It's not a matter of style just a lesson in taste

I remember when I was a child
You made me up to be your lover
Now I'm sitting right beside you
Other people still exist
I don't pretend to love them less but darling
When you drive this way I lose my breath

Right beside you I feel
Right beside you I am
Right beside you I kneel (beside you)
Right beside you (oooh) I stand
Right beside you I see (beside you)
Right beside you (oooh beside you) I stay
Right beside you (oooh) I'll be
Right beside you

Always
Right beside you I feel
Right beside you (oooh) I am
Right beside you I kneel (beside you)
Right beside you I stand
Right beside you I see (beside you)
Right beside you (oooh) I stay
Right beside you (beside you) I'll be
Right beside you (oooh) always
