Lyrics
[Verse 1]
What's the use of reachin' for your heart?
We sail miles apart
I gave you tomorrow's useless, broken trust
To make our world alive
I'm free from lover's breathless greed
Following me
Perhaps you could just take one small chance and see
Baby you'll need me
[Verse 2]
I'm the man that stands behind you
Will come while you prove yourself
Understand that there is someone waitin' 'til the curtains close
[Verse 3]
Me, I'm a water color washin' off
To the deepest sea
Though my soul may set in darkness
It will rise in light
[Verse 4]
I'm the man that stands behind you
Will come while you prove yourself
I'm behind your claim to freedom
Field wide, I can meet you there
[Verse 5]
Shut my eyes and all the world drops
Lift them and you're born again
I'm behind your claim to freedom
Field wide I can meet you there
I'm the man that stands behind you
Will come while you prove yourself
I will come back here at sunrise
Lover who waits on love
