I’ll Cover You
[ANGEL]
Live in my house
I'll be your shelter
Just pay me back
With one thousand kisses
Be my lover
And I'll cover you

[TOM]
Open your door
I'll be your tenant
Don't got much baggage to lay at your feet
But sweet kisses I've got to spare
I'll be there and I'll cover you

[ANGEL & TOM]
I think they meant it
When they said you can't buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you are, my love
On life, be my life

[ANGEL, TOM, Both]
Just slip me on
I'll be your blanket
Wherever, whatever
I'll be your coat
You'll be my king
And I'll be your castle
No, you'll be my queen
And I'll be your moat
[ANGEL & TOM]
I think they meant it
When they said you can't buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease you are, my love
On life, all my life
I've longed to discover
Something as true as this is

[TOM, ANGEL]
So, with a thousand sweet kisses
If you're cold and you're lonely
I'll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses
You've got one nickel only
I'll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses
When you're worn out and tired
I'll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses
When your heart has expired
I'll cover you

[BOTH]
Oh, lover
I'll cover you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, lover
I'll cover you
