about

From 1988 album 'I'm your man', Cohen throws himself at the feet of a woman he's done wrong.
He'd never beg for her forgiveness, of course.

lyrics

I'm Your Man
If you want a lover, I’ll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love, I’ll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner, take my hand,
or If you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand, I’m your man

If you want a boxer,I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor,I’ll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver, climb inside,
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can,I’m your man

CHORUS
Ah, the moon's too bright,The chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep tonight
I've been running through these promises to you
That I made but I could not keep
Ah, but a man never got a woman back
Not by begging on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby and I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart, and I'd tear at your sheet
I'd say please - - I’m your man

SOLOS FOR BOTH DAMON AND LANCE

And if you've got to sleep a moment on the road,
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone,I’ll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only want to walk with me a while
Across the sand, I’m your man

CHORUS
