[Verse 1] What's the use of reaching for your heart when we sail miles apart? I gave you tomorrow's useless broken try to make our world alive I'm free from lover's breathless scream, following me Perhaps you could just take one small chance, and see maybe you need me
[Chorus 1] I'm the man that stands behind you Real calm while you prove yourself Understand that there is someone Waiting till the curtains close
[Verse 2] Me, I'm a watercolour washing off Into the deepest sea Though my soul may set in darkness It will rise in light
[Chorus 2] I'm the man that stands behind you Real calm while you prove yourself Out beyond your claim to freedom A field wide, I can meet you there
[Verse 3] I shut my eyes and all the world drops I lift them and you're born again Out beyond your claim to freedom A field wide, I can meet you there
[Chorus 3] I'm the man that stands behind you Real calm while you prove yourself I will come back here at sunrise A lover who waits all night
