Well I want you as you are Not some collapsing star I'll wait I'll wait for good What else can I do I don't want you as a fading light I don't want to be the weight you carry I just want to be the man you come home to every night Well I want you as you are Don't be someone you're not The kids that we once were They wouldn't know us now I don't want you as a fading light I don't want to be the weight you carry I just want to be the man you come home to every night I don't want you as a fading light I don't want to be the weight you carry I just want to be the man you come home to I just want to be the man you come home to every night
