I'm Your Man
W. Houston & E. Iglesias Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can be a million miles away from me
You can be kissin' another man's lips
But I'm your man, I'm your man

If tomorrow would stay behind
And my eyes that never wake up
I'm your man, I'm your man
I pray to God, I pray for time
I pray I can hold you in my arms
Pray with me eternally
Time is forever ours

It's the way that you smile
It's the way that you cry
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way that I feel, when I feel you inside
Why I always want to be your man

You can be a million miles away from me
You can be kissin' another man's lips
But I'm your man, I'm your man

They can take away my heart and my soul
They can tell me you don't love me no more
But I'm your man, I'm your man

I won't give up,
I won't let you down
I promise to always be by your side
Pray for faith, pray for you
Pray that we'll always be

It's the way that you smile
It's way that you cry
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way that I feel, when I feel you inside
Why I always want to be your man

It's the way your weak
It's the way that you're strong
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way you believe
And the love that you give
Why I always want to be your man

I pray to God, I pray for time
I pray I can hold you in my arms
Pray with me eternally
Time is forever ours

It's the way that you smile
It's the way that you cry
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way that I feel, when I feel you inside
Why I always want to be your man

It's the way your weak
The way that you're strong
Why I always want to be your man
It's the way you believe
It's the love that you give
Why I always want to be your man





Why I always want to be your man
Why I always want to be your man
