If I Told You

You're waitin' for a sign
Lyin' awake at night, I know
You need a hero in your life
Livin' as the story was told
But your hero never comes
And your battle's never won
Oh, time, I can see is slippin' away
Slippin' away

But if I told you
I'm just a man, let me in
And if I show you
All my love will never end
And if I told you
How could you turn away?

You're livin' in a dream
With princes in castles high
But your castles, they've burned
And your soldiers are bloody and tired
And your prince in armor never comes
You're too blind to see the only one
Oh, girl can't you see it slippin' away
Slippin' away

But if I told you
I'm just a man, let me in
And if I show you
All my love will never end
And if I told you
How it could feel to let me in
And if I show you
How could you turn away?

Feel my heartbeat
Feel your blood run cold
You're a dreamer
How was I to know?
If you open your fortress
And show me the secrets you hold
I will never let you slip away

Slippin' away
Oh-oh, oh-oh...
Oh!

If I told you
I'm just a man, let me in
And if I show you
All my love will never end
And if I told you
I'm just a man
If I show you
How could you turn away?

(If I told you)
Ooh, just a man
(If I show you)
Ooh, all my love will never end
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...
How could you turn away?

(If I told you)
Whoa-whoa-whoa...
