i might be a man of riches
might be on top of the world
but i d still feel like a pauper
if i wasn't with you girl
i might be the king in the castle
might have my cake and eat it too
but baby it don't matter
if i ain't with you

baby it's a fact
believe it's true
that i like where i m at
whenever i m with you

i might be freezin my ass off
knee deep in snow
might be in the middle of the ocean
on a sinking row boat
i might be down on my luck
i might be busted and through
but it doesn't matter
baby if i m with you

i might be far from my home
is some strange distant place
but i d be alright baby
if i could see your sweet face
i might not have a dollar
not even a penny to my name
i might have burned all my bridges
but i d still feel the same

now there've been times in my life
when i felt so alone
i'd cry myself to sleep
i'd turn my heart to stone
i thought that fallen in love
was something i d never do
but that was back in the day
long before i met you

i might be in the middle of nowhere
in the land of the hurt
i might be haunted by demons
i might be lost in my work
i might be out in the rain
i might be just getting by
i might be ready to run
i might be telling a lie
