  • Baby light a couple candles
    Lock the bedroom door
    Put on some sweet soul music
    Throw a blanket on the floor
    Surrender to my patient hands
    All week I've been your husband
    Tonight I want to be your man

    It hit me just this morning
    When I passed you in the hall
    I swear I caught you lookin'
    Like you don't know me at all
    Let me show you who I am
    All week I've been your husband
    Tonight I want to be your man

    And I will always be your cover when you're cold
    And when the world lines up against you
    I'm the safe place you can go
    But now and then we need to find some time
    To be in love, just be in love

    Now the whole world's in bed sleeping
    I think we're finally alone
    And if the telephone starts ringing
    We'll pretend like we're not home
    'Cause any fool would understand
    That all week I've been your husband
    Tonight I want to be your man

    So let me show you who I am
    All week I've been your husband
    Tonight I want to be your man
    Just forget about that wedding band
    All week I've been your husband
    Tonight I want to be your man Writer/s: MELVERN RIVERS II RUTHERFORD, TROY VERGES
