Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I can only make you see
That you were only meant for me, now
Our love will be free
And I'll be your destiny
Destiny, destiny, right, now, now, now, babe
[Verse 2]
If I can only make you understand
Treat me right and love me
Then I will be your man
Your one and only man
[Verse 3]
These are the words
That I have to say
Live by them each and everyday
And as the time pass
I know our love will last
Our love will last
Our love will last
Now, now, now, babe
[Verse 4]
Take these blues
Understand them
Live by them and love me
Then I will be your man
Your one and only man
[Verse 5]
These are the words
That I have to say
Just live by them each and every day now
And as the time pass
I know our love will last
Our love will last
Our love will last
Now
[Verse 6]
Take these blues
Understand them
Live by them and love me
Honey, I will be your man
I said your one and only man
Yes, your truly lovely man
Yes, your lovely, lovely man
You don't need nobody to do nothing for you, baby
I said I could just love and be just one guy that you need
I could say I could be one guy that you love
I could be just anyone you want me to be, now, now
I said I could be just anything that you want me to be
Darling, baby, my, my, my, my baby
Na, na, wow
