If I was a better man
Would fellow men take me to their hearts
If I was a stronger man
Carrying the weight of popular demand
Tell me would that alarm her
I'd never harm her at all
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her
If I was a wiser man
Would other men reach out and touch me
If I was a kinder man
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease her
I want to please her again
If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love in burning words I would show it
If I was her lover
Her eyes in kisses I would cover
Come here my baby
Oh they can't touch you now
I'll keep you safe and warm
I'll never leave you at all
Come here my baby
Oh they won't touch you
Dishing up love for a hungry world
Tell me would that appease you
I want to please you again
If I was a soldier
Captive arms I'd lay before her
If I was a sailor
Seven oceans I'd sail to her
If I was a painter
I'd paint a world that couldn't taint her
If I was a leader
On food of love from above I would feed her
If I was a poet
All my love in burning words I would show it

Cross your heart and hope to die it's love.
A perfect world in my minds eye and oh
The face that's watching me tonight - has me -
Falling for that certain smile.
Hold your hand up
swear to God
it's love.
Help me to believe
because for all
The words you said to me tonight - has me -
Falling for that certain smile -
Falling for that certain smile.
Take my tears and smile for me
it's love.
Take my soul
my heart
my fears for oh
The way you're touching me tonight - has me -
Falling for that certain smile.
Bring me passion
bring me lust or love.
Bring me only truth
because for all
The times you said to me tonight - have me -
Falling for that certain smile -
Falling for that certain smile -
Falling for that certain smile -

We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand,
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazely stare
And all the millions here
We must have died alone
A long long time ago
Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
