Baby light a couple 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 want to 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
Let me show you who I am
All week I've been your husband
Tonight I want to be your man

And I will always be your cover when you're cold
And when the world lines up against you
I'm the 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 sleeping
I think we're finally alone
And if the telephone starts ringing
We'll pretend like we're not home
'Cause any fool would understand
That all week I've been your husband
Tonight I want to be your man

So let me show you who I am
All week I've been your husband
Tonight I want to be your man
Just forget about that wedding band
All week I've been your husband
Tonight I want to be your man
