Lyrics

[Verse 1]

That's all I wanted

Something special, someone sacred

In your eyes

For just one moment

To be bold and naked

At your side

[PreChorus]

Sometimes, I think that you'll never

Understand me

Understand me

Maybe, this time is forever

Say it can be

Whoa, whoa

[Verse 2]

That's all you wanted

Something special, someone sacred

In your life

Just for one moment

To be warm and naked

At my side

[PreChorus]

Sometimes, I think that you'll never

Understand me

Understand me

But something tells me together

We'd be happy

Whoa, whoa, baby

[Chorus]

I will be your father figure

Oh, baby

Put your tiny hand in mine

I'd love to

I will be your preacher, teacher

Be your daddy

Anything you have in mind

It would make me

I will be your father figure

Very happy

I have had enough of crime

Please let me

I will be the one who loves you

Till the end of time

Doo, doo, doo, whoa

[Verse 3]

That's all I wanted

But sometimes, love can be mistaken

For a crime

That's all I wanted

Just to see my baby's

Blue eyes shine

[PreChorus]

This time, I think that my lover

Understands me

Understands me

If we have faith in each other

Then we can be

Strong, oh, baby

[Chorus]

I will be your father figure

Put your tiny hand in mine

My baby

I will be your preacher, teacher

Anything you have in mind

I will be your father figure

I have had enough of crime

I will be the one who loves you

Till the end of time

[Bridge]

If you are the desert, I'll be the sea

If you ever hunger, hunger for me

Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be

So when you remember the ones who have lied

Who said that they cared, but then laughed as you cried

Beautiful darling

Don't think of me

Because all I ever wanted

It's in your eyes

Baby, baby

And love can't lie, no

[Bridge]

Greet me with the eyes of a child

My love is always telling me so

Heaven is a kiss and a smile

Just hold on, hold on

And I won't let you go, my baby

[Chorus]

I will be your father figure

Put your tiny hand in mine

I will be your preacher, teacher

Anything you have in mind, baby

I will be your father figure

I have had enough of crime

I will be the one who loves you

So I am gonna, love you

Till the end of

Till the end of time

[Outro]

I will be your father

I will be your

I will be your preacher

Father

I will be your father

I'll be your daddy, whoa

I will be the one who loves you

Till the end of time
