Lyrics:
I’m not ashamed to say
I did some light research today
I came across an image of you
on a holiday.
You had your arm around some blonde
they said was half your age
but I know how these liberal types tend to exaggerate.
‘Cause you were born to be my man
and I was born to take your hand
as before the grace of god we are one flesh
and if you think i’m crazy
well then baby
you ain’t seen nothing yet.
I do my hair each morning
in the style I know you like
and when i’m driving I picture your hand
resting on my thigh
we’re laughing at one of your stories
til I can barely breathe
trying not to wake the twins asleep in the back seat
‘Cause when I saw you at the signing
book in trembling hands
I heard it in the way you asked
and what’s your name ma’am ?
and if you think i’m crazy
well then baby
get out while you still can
tell me what to do
tell me what to say
i’ll be anything you want
tell me how to dress
tell me how to act
i’ll be anything as long as i’m yours
some people think the lonely
will settle for anyone
But if they got to know me
i’m as picky as they come
I’m waiting for that feeling they say
you know when you know
10 foot face on a billboard I thought
oh god here we go
‘Cause you were born to be my man
and if you do not take my hand
I’ll burn this wretched strip mall to the ground
and if you think I’m crazy
well then baby
you’ve never been in love
