Like the river running through my hands, time slipping through the sands  Never thought I'd love you more than everyone who came before    [chorus]   So when the world starts to cut me in two  I close my eyes for you.  I only want to be your man    Waiting for the rain to clear, wonder if you know I'm here  Your fire's running through my veins, trying to keep my head on straight    [chorus]  So when the world starts to cut me in two  I close my eyes for you  I only want to be your man    Watching for the storm to come, you and I were on the run  Seems like I always knew, forever it would be with you    [chorus]  So when the world starts to cut me in two  I close my eyes for you  I only want to be your man
