I've lived a life of superstitious wishes Just trying to get by and drifting like the fishes in the water I've looked for soft hair and beautiful faces by the daffodil fields Oh yes sir, I tried to steal your daughter Those gentle cries in the morning light, that softest skin, that sweet delight I've drank the sweetest water you can drink But I didn't really think I was a love man Until I met you Some people lie and cheat and steal and drink wine every night by the case
And I guess I'm that way too, I'm not perfect And I guess you've done bad things too, and that you're not always beautiful Well I guess I'm a fool, cause I think you're perfect Sitting by the fire one night she turned her head to me and said Baby would you ever burn me? I said no I'll never burn you - I'm burning I didn't know I was a love man Until I met you
