i might be a man of riches   might be on top of the world   but i’d still feel like a pauper   if i wasn't with you girl   i might be the king in the castle   might have my cake and eat it too   but baby it don't matter   if i ain't with you      baby it's a fact   believe it's true   that i like where i’m at   whenever i’m with you      i might be freezin my ass off   knee deep in snow   might be in the middle of the ocean   on a sinking row boat   i might be down on my luck   i might be busted and through   but it doesn't matter   baby if i’m with you      i might be far from my home   is some strange distant place   but i’d be alright baby   if i could see your sweet face   i might not have a dollar   not even a penny to my name   i might have burned all my bridges   but i’d still feel the same      now there've been times in my life   when i felt so alone   i'd cry myself to sleep   i'd turn my heart to stone   i thought that fallen in love   was something i’d never do   but that was back in the day   long before i met you      i might be in the middle of nowhere   in the land of the hurt   i might be haunted by demons   i might be lost in my work   i might be out in the rain   i might be just getting by   i might be ready to run   i might be telling a lie
