lyrics

I've got a tattered heart, it won't let me part
But you know that's the last thing on my mind
Because I love you so and I want you to know that I'm a friend indeed
And I may not be your lover anymore
But I can be the man you need

So if you have a bad day, I'll chase your demons away
I'll make you fell like you're the only one
So call me up on the telephone if your spirit starts to bleed
'Cause I may not be your lover anymore
But I can be the man you need

Call you up in Dallas to make sure you had a good flight
And you don't need to shutter when you're with another
'Cause you know that it's alright

And so your mom is mad, you don't talk to your dad
Your new mans been caught sleeping around
Well I can be that shoulder to cry on it won't hurt my dignity
'Cause I may not be your lover anymore
But I can be the man you need

Call you up in Dallas to make sure you had a good flight
And you don't need to shutter when you're with another
'Cause you know that it's alright and you know that it's alright
And you know that it's alright to call on me
And you know that it's alright, and you know that it's alright
And you know that it's alright to call on me

So call me up on the telephone if your spirit starts to bleed
'Cause I may not be your lover anymore
But I can be the man you need
