Lyrics

A Man Like Me

Baby I can see that look in your eyes
You put away your heart and closed the door
Maybe you think you can count on somebody
Maybe you've been burned before

Sometimes when you're feeling lonely at night
You think you'll never see the light of day
All you gotta do is take my hand
And I promise you I'll show you the way

You need a man like me
Someone who holds the key
Unlock your heart and set you free
You need a man like me

Maybe you're thinking you can hold the line
Like you've done a hundred times before
Maybe you're hoping you can do it alone
But it's never been done before

Once you've seen the players on a darkened stage
Mouthing lines that cut you deep in your soul
You'll be the lonely beggar with the ghost in her eyes
And you'll believe what I'm telling you

You need a man like me
