The Mariner's Children - My Dear lyrics

I am your man And you're mine What don't you understand I'm a gift that I give to you free So be grateful and start loving me I won't ever leave And though you push, won't ever leave you be Because I know what in your heart remains And I know what on your soul is stained And I rest easy tonight Knowing he lies far from your sight And as the light shines in across the plains I know far from you he will remain Tell me where you've been tonight My dear I can see him in your eyes My dear Love's a fire I can not light My dear On a cold and lonesome night My dear, my dear, my dear Like a moth betrothed to a flame Without words I sense you scream my name As we burn in fatal ecstasy I'll know your love was all I would ever need And that man whose name I heard you call He meant you harm, he meant to ruin us all But don't fear, no more you'll see him round For tonight he sleeps beneath the ground Tell me where you've been tonight My dear I can see him in your eyes My dear Love's a fire I can not light My dear On a cold and lonesome night My dear, my dear, my... Lover please don't fear me I mean you no harm I only broke his neck and both his arms I know that you're weary So I'll be your best friend I'll bolt the door and never open it again And I guess that's how this little tale will end
