I'll be your thief in the night so I can steal you
I'll be your church where you pray so I can heal you
I'll be your lover where you lay so I can feel you
I'll be your sunlight in your day so I can see you

You'll be my life when I’m dead
I'll be your calm in the storm ahead

You'll be the beat in my heart when there is none
You'll be the air in my lungs when my breath is done
You'll be the tears I can't cry when you're weeping
You're my only reason to keep from sleeping

You'll be my life when I'm dead
I'll be your calm in the storm ahead

Tell my woman that I'll try
To stay closer by her side

You'll my life when I'm dead
I'll be your calm in the storm ahead
Tell my woman that i'll try
To stay closer by her side
