I prefer the river The ocean is too big a body to Understand Go to where it narrows Bring your bow and arrow Meet me out on the land White water flowing on the rocks in the sunshine Drinking red wine in the summertime Night swimming, skinny dipping, love in The moonlight And it's all mine I don't want a boyfriend I don't want a house built on the sand I don't want a lover I want a man A coming-from-the-heart man Living in my heartland Coming-from-the-heart man Underneath the covers of treetops and Each other Awoken by a gentle breeze Are we here in silence The birds and smells of lilacs Going out from a city Bird calling, water falling, dreams in the sunshine Drinking red wine in the summertime Sun tan and Steely Dan and sounds on The radio And it's all mine I don't want a boyfriend I don't want a house built on the sand I don't want a lover I want a man A coming-from-the-heart man Living in my heartland Coming-from-the-heart man Sweet like honey dripping, oh touch and taste Lights my fire burning all night and day Your soul so stunning Taking my breath away My desire reaching out for the flame I don't want a boyfriend I don't want a house built on the sand I don't want a lover I want a man A coming-from-the-heart man Living in my heartland Coming-from-the-heart man I want a man (I want a man) In my heartland Coming-from-the-heart man Living in my heartland
