I Was Your Man

Tindersticks


So, you wish I was your man, and I'd understand 
So, you wish I was your man, and I'd understand 
Not a surface thing, we could meet down inside 
Not a surface thing, we could meet way down inside 
You've got a smile that never reaches your eyes 
You want to try to do something right 
So, take me home tonight 
Turn out the light 
You're just alone in the dark 
So, you wish I was your man, in my consciousness you ran 
In my eyes, you swam -- nothing's too much trouble for you 
So, you wish I was your man, and I'd understand 
So, you wish I was your man, and I'd understand you 
You've got a smile that never reaches your eyes 
You want to try to do something right 
So, take me home tonight 
Turn out the light 
You're just alone in the dark
