Album:

Extension of a Man

If I ever leave you baby
You can say I told you so
And if I ever hurt you 
You know I hurt myself as well


Is that any way for a man to carry on
Do you think I want my loved one gone
Said I love you
More than you'll ever know
More than you'll ever know


When I wasn't making much money
You know where my paycheck went
You know I brought it home to you baby
And I never spent a red cent, hey


Is that any way for a man to carry on
Do you think I want my loved one gone
Said I love you
More than you'll ever know, heeey
More than you'll ever know


Now listen to this
I'm not trying to be
Just any kind of man, no I hate
I'm just trying to be somebody
You can love, trust and understand
I know, I know I know that I can be 
A part of you that no one else could see, yeah


But I got to hear you say, I got to hear you say
It's allright 


I'm only flesh and blood
But I can be everything that you demand
I can be king of everything
Or just a tiny grain of sand


Now tell me
Is that anyway for a man to carry on
Do you think that I want my loved one gone
I love you
More than you'll ever know
I said I love you
I love
I love you
Heeeey
