Ma - Man in My Life Lyrics

You are the man
Oh, yeah, yeah
Always the man

There'll be no darkness tonight
Baby, our love will shine (light in your love)
We've had our share of bad times
But now we're in paradise (loving each other right)
You're every wonder in this world to me
And I'll never let my baby leave me

Even though we've been through ups and downs
You know I'll always be around (always be around)
Why did you do me that way?
But I still love you, baby (why'd you do me)
Why did you hurt me that way, babe? (Why did you do me that way?)
'Cause you will always be the man in my life

Won't you lay back in my tenderness?
Let's make this a night we won't forget
Boy, I need your sweet caress
So, just forget about those other days
We'll make 'em all just fade away
And never ever let nobody come between us
I never want to lose your trust now

Baby, babe
Even though that I'm a pretty young thang (I'm just a pretty young thang)
You messed up and you did some wrong thangs (know you did some wrong thangs)
But I don't give a damn 'cause you will always be my man
(I don't give a damn 'cause you will always be my man)

Even though we've been through ups and downs
You know I'll always be around (be around)
Why did you do me that way?
But I still love you, baby (why'd you do me)
Why did you hurt me that way, babe? (Why did you do me that way?)
'Cause you will always be the man in my life (always be the man)

When you left I thought about so many things and
Boy, I never want to feel that way again
I got petrified and lost my self-control
I don't never want you to go nowhere
Don't ever want you to leave (no, no, no, oh)
Don't leave me, baby (don't leave me, baby)
Don't leave me, baby
(You're the only man)

Ooh, boy, let me keep you warm (in my life)
You are the man
Fill you with the sweetest love (sweetest touch)
Always the man (always the man)
Lay back in my tenderness (so lay back with me)
You are the man (let me touch, boy)
Rock me with your sweet caress (sweet caress)
Always the man (always the man)

You are the man (ohh, babe)
Always the man
(Don't you go nowhere 'cause you're my man)
You are the man
(All through the night)
Always the man

Even though we've been through ups and downs (you are, you are)
You know, I'll always be around (you are, you are)
Why did you do me that way?
But I still love you, baby (you're my man)
Why did you hurt me that way, babe? (Yes, you are, babe)
'Cause you will always be the man in my life (lay back with me)
Let me touch you, boy
Lay back with me (you are the man)

Even though we've been through ups and downs (don't you know, don't you know)
You know, I'll always be around (love you so, it's crucial, boy)
Why did you do me that way? (Don't you know)
But I still love you, baby (don't you know)
Why did you hurt me that way, babe? (Always the man in my life)
'Cause you will always be the man in my life
(Lay back in my tenderness) be my guy
You are the man
Rock me with your sweet caress
