I'll Be Your Lover, Too

Van Morrison · Other Songs - Van Morrison

I'll be your man
I'll understand
And do my best to take good care of you
Yes I will
You'll be my queen
I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too
Derry down green
Colors of my dream
A dream that's daily coming true
When day is through
I will come to you
And tell you of your many charms

And you'll look at me
With eyes that see
And melt into each others arms
And so I come
To be the one
Who's always standing next to you

Reach out for me
So I can be
The one who's always reaching out for you
Yes I will, Yes I will
You'll be my queen
I'll be your king
And I'll be your lover too.
