That old dog has chained you 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
Damn, I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes

Made 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
Oh...
Open up coming inside

Gonna fill you up, gonna make you cry

This monkey can't stand to see you black and blue
I give you something sweet each time you come inside my jungle book
What is it just too good?

Don't say you'll stay, 'cause then you go away

Damn, I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes

Made 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
Shucks, 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 (yeah)
If I was your girl, believe me
I'd turn on the Rolling Stones
We could groove along and feel much better
Let me in
I could do it forever and ever and ever and ever
Give me an hour to kiss you
Walk through Heaven's door I'm sure
Don't need no doctor to feel much better
Let me in, oh
(I wanna live) Forever and ever and ever and ever

I sat on a 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 return as chained and bound to you

Damn, I wish I was your lover
I'd rock you 'til the daylight comes

Made 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
Shucks, 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
I wanna open up, I'm gonna come inside

I wanna fill you up, I wanna make you cry
Damn, I wish I was your lover
Gettin' on a subway, and I'm comin' uptown
Damn, I wish I was your lover
Standing on the street corner, waiting for my life to change
Damn, I wish I was your lover
And I'm feelin' like a school boy, too shy and too young, oh
Damn, I wish I was your lover
Tryna open up, I wanna come inside

Gunna fill you up, I'm gunna make you cry
Damn, I wish I was your lover
I'm gettin' on my camel, and I'll ride it uptown, oo
Damn, I wish I was your lover
Standing on a street corner, waiting for my life to change
