Be Your Man - The Footnotes

If you think that you're happy It ain't true I see you out with them other boys That ain't you Your eyes give off secrets I'm no fool Uh I'm stupid for you But that's nothing new It's obvious the way you're hurting Who made you think that you deserve it? Caught between what you think is right And what you want I understand 'Cause I get you emotionally I'm not a man But I can if you want me to be I know how you think And what you like And what your body needs Convinced you should run from me I'm not what you planned But I'll be your man You were more than a moment That walked through And I am no one night lover I want you You're eyes give off secrets I'm no fool Oh I'm stupid for you But that is nothing new It's obvious the way you're hurting Who made you think that you deserve it? Caught between what you think is right And what you want I understand 'Cause I get you emotionally I'm not a man But I can if you want me to be I know how you think And what you like And what your body needs Convinced you should run from me I'm not what you planned But I'll be your man I understand I understand 'Cause I get you emotionally (I get you baby) I'm not a man (no I'm not a man) But I can if you want me to be I know how you think (how you think) And what you like (what you like) And what your body needs (what your body needs) Convinced you should run from me I'm not what you planned But I'll be your man
