i never thought that i could be so bold
to even say these thoughts aloud
i see you with your man
your eyes just shine
while he stands tall
and walking proud

that look you give that guy
i wanna see
looking right at me
if i could be that guy
instead of me
i'd never let you down

it always seems like you're going somewhere
better than you've been before
while i go to sleep and i dream all night
of you knocking at my door

that look you give that guy
i wanna see
looking right at me
if i could be that guy
instead of me
i'd be all i can be

i'm nothing like what i'd like to be
i'm nothing much i know it's true
i lack the style and pedigree
and my chances are so few

that look you give that guy
i wanna see
looking right at me
if i could be that guy
instead of me
i'd give you all i got

i never thought that i could be so bold
to even say these thoughts aloud
but if, let's say, it won't work out
you know where i can be found

that look you give that guy
i wanna see
looking right at me
if i could be that guy
instead of me
i'd never let you down

lilac blowing through the warm summer air
hint of your perfume
the smell of your hair
sun is setting and the crows all cry
electrical storm forming in the sky
got a hurt inside that i just gotta heal
all i can do is feel, feel, feel
day is dying and the night is born
baby don't leave me so lovelorn

a hungry dog howls through the trees
it echoes long on the lilac breeze
a blackbird sings a song so sad
girl i want it bad
girl i want it bad

birds do it, bees do it
i wanna do it
the only thing we need to do
is get down to it
please hear my plea
know it comes from the heart
baby you and me got something to start

a hungry dog howls through the trees
it echoes long on the lilac breeze
a blackbird sings a song so sad
girl i want it bad
girl i want it bad

why won't you hear me
i'm a desperate man
darling don't fear me
just say we can

lilac blowing in the warm summer breeze
floating so soft with the cries in the trees
sun is setting and the day is dead
how can i get it through your pretty little head

a hungry dog howls through the trees
it echoes long on the lilac breeze
a blackbird sings a song so sad
girl i want it bad
girl i want it bad
girl i want it bad

my love is always just as she seems
a force of nature all her own
to be reckoned with
whatever's wrong with me
her kiss redeems
and it's all there
in my dreams

my love is soaring
she glides through the sky
hardly a warning
she takes my hand
says "open your eyes"
we look down on the earth
and all its schemes
we laugh
and it's all there
in my dreams

we swoop down below the clouds
destination unknown
and then she says
"let's go home"

my love is resting under a tree
she whispers softly in my ear
as she lay next to me
"that was the funnest day"
her sad eyes beam
and it's all there
in my dreams

i am el hombre lobo
on the prowl for a restless night
i got her right here in my sights
got a fuse that i can light
she's tremendous
she's dynamite

she is a formidable opponent
she could put up a hard won fight
got her head screwed on real tight
being the bomb is her birthright
she's tremendous
she's dynamite

she's tremendous dynamite

i am el hombre lobo
on the prowl just past midnight
darting under the town searchlights
it's all worth it to take a bite
she's tremendous
she's dynamite

the longing is a pain
a heavy pressure on my chest
it rarely leaves
and my day becomes a quest
to try not to think about her
and all that she brings
forget about her magic
all the beautiful things

surely there are other things to life
but i can't think of one single thing
that matters more
than just to see her
just to see her
her smile
her touch
her smell
her laugh

the longing is a friend
a way to stay close
and feel like she's here
and feel like she knows
that when i say i would die for her
it's not just words
i really would
and to make the world a safer place for her
well i believe i really could

surely there are other things to life
but i can't think of one single thing
that matters more
than just to see her
just to see her
her smile
her touch
her smell
her laugh

i love them all

sundown on the sorry day
by night lights the children pray
i know you're probably getting ready for bed
beautiful woman get out of my head
i'm so tired of the same old crud
sweet baby i need fresh blood

the moon shines in the autumn sky
growing cold the leaves all die
i'm more alone than i've ever been
help me out of the shape i'm in
after the fires, before the flood
my sweet baby i need fresh blood

whatever trepidation you may feel
in your heart you know it's not real
in a moment of clarity
summon an act of charity
you've got to pull me out of this mud
sweet baby i need fresh blood

i'm so bored
i wanna get in trouble
buried alive
beneath my life's rubble
i'll tell you what's really making me sad
you're disinterest is driving me mad
you're so fine
if you were mine i'd love you up
give me a sign my darling
well i can shine
if you'd just let me now

what's a fella gotta do
to spend a little time with you

i'm so tired of feeling i could be more
i need a purpose
what am i for
what i'd like
after close inspection
is for you to look in my direction
you're so fine
if you were mine i'd love you up
give me a sign my darling
well i can shine
if you'd just give it up

what's a fella gotta do
to spend a little time with you

i'm so bored
i'd welcome a disaster
anything to make the heart beat faster
but i got a feeling we could be so right
make my day
i'll make your night

what's a fella gotta do
to spend a little time with you

my timing is off
she isn't ready for my love
it's all that i've got
but it's pretty big thing
that she should recognize
the truth between us cannot hide

she knows that it's real
but the situation doesn't fit
i know what i feel
and i know that this is really it
the thing it's all about
and i don't have a single doubt

my timing is off
but sometimes that's how it all works
believe it or not
we don't have a choice in matters of the heart
just gotta be brave enough
to love
and let yourself be loved

my timing is off
but i'm not worried about a thing
she knows that it's real
she couldn't throw it all away
for fear of happiness
this isn't like that other mess

everyday i wake up and wonder why
i'm alone when i know
i'm a lovely guy
birds come down from skies so blue
see all the beautiful things you do
why can't i just get with you

every night i carry out my plan
pray to god that one day
i could be your man
birds come down from skies so blue
see all the beautiful things you do
why can't i just get with

you'd be my only friend in the world
or you could just be my girl

and if do run away from this life
there won't be much for me
in the afterlife
although i know that you don't even care
i'd rather stay in a world where
birds come down from skies so blue
see all the beautiful things you do
why can't i just get with you

all my life i had this funny little feeling
came and went time and again among my daily dealings
call it a deficit
an emptiness inside
why is true love hard to find
why does true love hide
but now i found you
and i know that we would be
so very happy
if you could only see
that i was made for you
and you were made for me

the road in front of us is long and it is wide
we've got beginner's luck
we've got it on our side
if you are willing
well i think i'm qualified
and with beginner's luck we've gotta take the ride

i've got a plan you know
i've got it all worked out
and all you gotta do is pack your bags
and check your doubts
you'll come around and you will see just what i am
a true love through the worst of times
a true love 'til the end
so now you found me and you've only got to see
how complimentary we could really be
cause i was made for you
and you were made for me

the road in front of us is long and it is wide
we've got beginner's luck
we've got it on our side
we will be stronger
if our forces are allied
and with beginner's luck we've gotta take the ride

we'll take the ride as far as anyone can go
we'll brave it all
hand in hand and toe to toe
i've got it all worked out
don't worry about a thing
just give your hand to me
and here, put on this ring

the road in front of us is long and it is wide
we've got beginner's luck
we've got it on our side
if you are willing
well i think i'm qualified
and with beginner's luck we've gotta take the ride

well it's another warm day
in the city of cold hearts
they all just play the part
of who they are
and i'm here on my own
i'd rather be alone
than try to be someone that i'm not
and you seem like someone
who could appreciate the fact
that i'm no ordinary man

and it's misunderstood
what you've heard about me
i see why you would doubt me
but know this
no one has a right
until they've fought my fight
to understand just where i'm coming from
and it's that fight that brought me here today
exactly as i am
no ordinary man

well it's another warm day
in the city of cold hearts
it ends before it starts
in their maze
but you, you're not like that
you know where it's at
the only rules you follow are your own
and you seem like someone
who could appreciate the fact
that i'm no ordinary man
