That's all I wanted
                              
Something special, something sacred
          
In your eyes

For just one moment
                
To be bold and naked

At your side
                             
Sometimes I think that you'll never
       
Understand me
                    
Maybe this time is forever
        
Say it can be


That's all you wanted
Something special, someone sacred
In your life
Just for one moment
To be warm and naked
At my side
Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
But something tells me together
We'd be happy


(Baby)

I will be your father figure
(Oh baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine

(I'd love to)

I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind

(It would make me)

I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime

(Please let me)

I will be the one who loves you
                  
Until the end of time



That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken
For a crime
That's all I wanted
Just to see my baby's
Blue eyed shine
This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be
Strong


I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time


              
If you are the desert
             
I'll be the sea
           
If you ever hunger
            
Hunger for me
                
Whatever you ask for
                     
That's what I'll be
                                      
So when you remember the ones who have lied
                    
Who said that they cared?
                          
But then laughed as you cried
           
Beautiful Darling

Don't think of me
                      (solo) 
Because all I ever wanted
                             
It's in your eyes baby, baby
                
And love can't lie, no...
                               
(Greet me with the eyes of a child)
                             
My love is always tell me to...
                          
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
          
Just hold on, hold on
                        
I won't let you go, my baby




I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
(So I am gonna love you)
Until the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I will be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you until the end of time

I am not sure solo is correct but it's better than nothing, don't you
think?
