Lyrics
ALL OF THE ABOVE
I'm not the man you think of when you wake up every day
There's someone else still in your dreams keeps pushing me away
But I'll wait and take my chance to tell you how I feel
To prove to you my love for you is real
If I stood in line I would be back of the queue
But I will bide my time just to say to you
When the winds of change blows your dreams away
I'll pick them up so you can dream again
I won't just love you every night and day
I won't just wipe your tears away
I won't just comfort you every night
When your darkness needs more light
I won't just crawl on my hands and knees
A thousand miles to see your smile
'Cos there ain't just one thing I'll do to show my love
Darling, I'll do all of the above
I will make a list for you, half a mile long
Of all the things I'll do to help keep you strong
It will have everything you could possibly need
My darling, for you it's guaranteed
Any wish you make will be at my command
Like a genie, gently hold me in your hand
And don't be afraid of getting in too deep
Because I won't make promises I can't keep
I won't just love you every night and day
I won't just wipe your tears away
I won't just comfort you every night
When your darkness needs more light
I won't just crawl on my hands and knees
A thousand miles to see your smile
Because there ain't just one thing I'll do to show my love
Darling, I'll do all of the above
Darling, I'll do all of the above
