You know that time changes, rips right through all our pages

And there ain't no going back

We've run through all these stages, sent here from many places

And I'm still coming back



I've watched you stand, oh I've watched you fall

Wouldn't change nothing at all, yeah, yeah

But if I'm still your man and we've been through it all

To me that's beautiful



And when the tide changes you can see me fall

They'll just go masquerade themselves and never bleed for you at all

But if you lift your arms up now 'cause the lion's off your back

Your blood is pumping so damn fast, now I'ma bring you back



Well, I've watched you stand, oh I've watched you fall

Wouldn't change nothing at all, yeah, yeah

But if I'm still your man and we've been through it all

To me that's beautiful, yeah



When them bullies gone and the wine goes through

And all those hungry ladies have slept all their life about you, yeah

Oh, when you're empty and so tired you can't seem to find your mind

Well, the sun is on your back my friend, now time to take what's mine



Well, I've watched you stand, oh I've watched you fall

Wouldn't change nothing at all, yeah, yeah

But if I'm still your man and we've been through it all

To me that's beautiful, yeah



But if you lift your arms up now 'cause the lion's off your back

Your blood is pumping so damn fast, now time to bring you back



Well, I've watched you stand, oh I've watched you fall

Wouldn't change nothing at all, yeah, yeah

But if I'm still your man and we've been through it all

To me that's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Yeah to me, yeah that's beautiful
