I have dreamed a dream, there a common man |
|
Ah, hoping to rise to the top |
|
I have sworn by my blood as your man, my love |
|
That one day, I promise |
|
One day your hurting would stop |
|
But I'll never never never never change |
|
I never change one single grain of sand |
|
Oh, thanks to you baby |
|
For just loving a common man |
|
I want to thank you this evening |
|
Oh, I thought, I thought that I failed you so |
|
But that's when you turn around and look me in my eyes |
|
And you let me know |
|
You said and you said it softly |
|
I didn't have to worry about being a common man |
|
You said, "David, you don't have to worry about rising to the top" |
|
You said, you said, you said I didn't have to swear by my blood |
|
But ah baby, that one day your heartaches would stop |
|
Then you put your arms around me and you said |
|
You never never never never cared |
|
If I never change one single grain of sand |
|
You said, "I love you, baby |
|
I love you for just being a common man" |
|
For my gratitude just keep on growing |
|
Yeah, for recognizing me, I thank you baby |
|
Yeah, for respecting me, yeah I want to thank you, baby |
|
For every time of need, Lord, I thank you baby |
|
Oh for my gratitude, for respecting me, baby |
|
For just being a common man |
|
Ah I want to thank you babe |
|
In a time of need, I want to thank you for respecting me |
|
In a time of worry, I want to thank you for calming my troubles |
|
Oh, I thank you baby |
|
Thank you honey, for loving a common man like me |
