I hired a private eye
When I got too high
I was paranoid
I thought I saw you see another guy
The private eye said that I was dumb
I paid a tidy sum
Just to have him tell me I'm a lucky bum
If you weren't the sweetest steady Dawn
I couldn't be the lucky one
I promise that I'll do what I can
Maybe have to try pretty hard
I'll be the man that I am
You be the woman you are
Had I never bought that sweater
That I thought might catch your eye
Stolen cologne tester
That I can't afford to buy
Had I never taken shoes off
Barefoot in the grass
Had I never met your Mother
And acted rather crass
And I love you
I only sing that I wear your ring
And I love you
I only sing that I wear your ring
I promise that I'll do what I can
Maybe have to try pretty hard
I'll be the man that I am
You be the woman you are
If you weren't the sweetest steady Dawn
I couldn't be the lucky one
Someone here to live with
Means someone here to give
Some here to love means
Someone here to live
Someone living lovely
Means someone loving you
Not someone a little like you
Someone exactly you
I promise that I'll do what I can
Maybe have to try pretty hard
I'll be the man that I am
You be the woman you are
If you weren't the sweetest steady Dawn
I couldn't be the lucky one
And I love you
