Baby, light a couple of 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 wanna 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.
Well, let me show you who I am.
All week, I've been your husband: tonight I wanna be your man.
And I'll always be, your cover when you're cold.
And when the world lines up against you,
I'm a 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 sleepin'; I think we're finally alone.
And if the telephone starts ringing', we'll pretend like we're not home.
'Cos any fool would understand,
That all week, I've been your husband: tonight I wanna be your man.
Mmmm.
Instrumental break.
So let me show you who I am.
All week, I've been your husband: tonight I wanna be your man.
Just forget about that wedding band.
All week, I've been your husband: tonight I wanna be your man.
Mmmmmmm
