Normally I don't cross the line like this
I hope I'm not coming off self-righteous
You only met me tonight
Feel free to stop me any time
But if it was me
I'd put your heart on a mantel
Protect you from what you're not strong enough to handle
I'd never leave 'til the tears are dry
I'm there for you tonight
And every other night
'Cause baby I know
Love's just a pattern of ups and downs
You need someone who wants
To keep you safe and sound
Someone who won't get tired
Through the rain and fire
Baby I know
And I won't ever give the run around
I'll be the one that's always gonna stand the ground
Promise I won't get tired
Through the rain and fire
Normally I wouldn't carry on with you
But she's nowhere to be found in the picture
I see the sad in your eyes
But feel free to stop me any time
But if it was me
I'd hold your heart in a glass case
Instead she got you feeling like you're in last place
Let me stay 'til the tears are dry
I'm here for you tonight
And every other night
'Cause baby I know
Love's just a pattern of ups and downs
You need someone who wants
To keep you safe and sound
Someone who won't get tired
Through the rain and fire
Baby I know
I-I-I won't ever give the run around
I-I'll be the one that's always gonna stand the ground
I-I promise I won't get tired
Through the rain and fire (ooh yeah, ooh yeah ooh yeah ooh yeah)
Through the rain and fire
It's amazing how I can look in your eyes
And tell that you haven't been satisfied
For a long time
If she just can't deliver
I can do it better
Let me summarize
It's amazing that we only met tonight
And I don't mean to bother
But you seem like an angel
That's longing to be free tonight
I'll be your alibi
Baby I know (ah ah)
Love's just a pattern of ups and downs (ah ah)
You need someone who wants (ah ah)
To keep you safe and sound (ah ah)
Someone who won't get tired
Through the rain and fire
Baby I know (ah ah)
I won't ever give the run around (ah ah)
I'll be the one that's always gonna stand the ground (ah ah)
Promise I won't get tired
Through the rain and fire (rain and fire)
Through the rain and fire (rain and fire, rain and fire)
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah ooh yeah ooh yeah)
(Ah ah, rain and fire, ooh yeah, ooh yeah ooh yeah ooh yeah)
