Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover

Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover - Sophie B. Hawkins

That old dog has chained you up alright

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 till 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

Do your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Oh oh this monkey can't stand

To see you black and blue

I give you something sweet each time

You come inside my jungle book

Or is it just too good

Say you'll staycause then you go away

Damn I wish I was your lover

I'd rock you till 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

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 mm

I could do forever and ever and ever and ever

Give me an hour to kiss you

Walk through Heavens door I'm sure

We don't need no doctor to feel much better

Let me in oh

Forever and ever 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 till 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

Getting on a subway and I'm coming uptown

Damn I wish I was your lover

Standing on the street corne

Waiting for my love to change

Damn I wish I was your lover

I do the last to word and ashame to your

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

Getting on I'm coming at right at uptown
