Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover
[Intro]
Damn I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
[Verse 1]
That old dog has you chained up all right
Give you everything you need
To live inside a twisted cage
Sleep beside an empty rage
I had a dream I was your hero
[Chorus]
Damn I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
[Verse 2]
I can't stand to see you black and blue
I'll give you something sweet each time you
Come inside my jungle room
Or is this just too good?
Don't say you'll stay
'Cause then you go away
[Chorus]
Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Fuck, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
Damn I wish I was your lover
[Verse 3]
If I was your girl, ooh, let me in
Let me in, I said let me in, let me in, yeah
We'd be together forever and ever and ever and ever
(And ever and ever and ever and ever)
[Bridge]
I sat on the mountainside with peace of mind
And I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear
Walked for days with no one near
And I returned chained and bound to you
[Chorus]
Damn I wish I was your lover
I'll rock you 'til the daylight comes
Make sure you are smiling and warm
I am everything
Tonight I'll be your mother
I'll do such things to ease your pain
Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed
Fuck, for me there is no other
You're the only shoe that fits
I can't imagine I'll grow out of it
[Outro]
I wish I was your lover
I wish I was your lover
Damn I wish I was your lover
I wish I was your lover
