I don't want to be your mother Theres two sides to each other You gotta meet me halfway Wont you let me be your lover Don't be no lone survivor I'm not going anywhere I'm just trying to tell you how I feel This one sided love affair How do I get the man in you to see I'm so much more than the mother in me I don't want to be your savior Forgive your bad behavior You gotta meet me halfway Cause theres so much to discover Don't be no lone survivor I wont leave you in the cold I'll be standing right beside you When you're feeling all alone The only way to set yourself free Is letting go of the savior in me Baby don't you shut me out Baby don't shut down on me I'm not going anywhere I'm not going anywhere I only want to bring you back to me Baby please don't shut me down Time wont bring me back to you I'd be lying to myself I'd be lying to myself And that's the only thing I cannot do I want to be your sweetheart I want to be your lady Oh I want to get swept away Let me cry for a change Don't need no lone survivor I need someone by my side We don't have to make it perfect Oh but maybe we could try Love me for the woman that I am And I will love you for being just a man Love me for the woman that I am And I will love you for being my man
