A Man to Me

When you drove me to the airport and kissed me good bye
I had to smile through my tears at those tears in your eyes
I was just leaving you for a week but you held me so tight
When you called me long distance to make sure I arrived
You said the house felt so empty and you apologized for being weak
Can't you see that's when you're a man to me.

Chorus:
When you show your tender side, when your heart is open wide
When you put your world on hold and stop to listen to my needs
When you really let it show that I'm a part of all your dreams
That's when you're a man to me.

The strength of your arms thrills me so much
But you make the earth move with the softness of your touch
And the love that you give me will always be enough
You've got nothing to prove, you've got nothing to hide
And you impress me the most when you don't even try
When your feelings shine through, oh, that's when you're a man to me.

Chorus:
When you show your tender side, when your heart is open wide
When you put your world on hold and stop to listen to my needs
When you really let it show that I'm a part of all your dreams
That's when you're a man to me.

When you put your world on hold and stop to listen to my needs
When you really let it show that I'm a part of all your dreams
Oh, that's when you're a man to me...
