[Verse 1] If you let me hold you I think you'd understand My heart's burning for you in a way no others can And I may not be perfect but if you'll call me your man I promise that I'll do the best I can [Verse 2] When you say my name it feels like time is standing still I never want to speed it up, I haven't got the will Though he may get tickets when he's too quick It's my heart that pays the bill I think I'll just let time stand still [Chorus X2] I thought my heart it was well protected Behind my ribs right where I had left it But I should have known that twelve or so bones wouldn't be enough to hide my love [Verse 3] I know that I'm not perfect but if you'll call me your man I promise that I'll do the best I can
