lyrics

(Section A)
Lay it down, lay it down in front of me
I can see it, I can feel it,
I'm a tell you how its gonna be
You want a soul

You the man, you're the only man, that I see in front of me
I'm right beside you, force behind you
Got you covered here for 'round the world to see
You want a soul

(Section B)
Oh but when I need some air around me
Slow down a little bit
Oh a step back, a place for hiding
Cool down a little bit
You know to give her space for breathing
Take time, a little bit

Just go, go, go.

(Section A1)
Turn around, turn around so we agree?
I can hear it, built to bear it,
know exactly who you tryna be
You want a soul

You the man, you're the only man, that I see in front of me
I'm right beside you, force behind you
Got you covered here for 'round the world to see
You want a soul

(Section C)
My brother, brother
Man, I got the key
We’ll make it over so deliciously
True it was never built for you, or me
But I’m a tell you how it’s going to be
So come along with me

My brother, only
Milk and honey
A Reconstruction built especially
Atop a mountain crest for you, and me
So come we’ll show em how it’s gonna be
Why don’t you sing it with me?
