He could be a sinner, or a gentleman He could be a preacher when your soul is damned He could be a lawyer on a witness stand But he'll never love you like I can, can He could be a stranger you gave a second glance He could be a trophy of a one night stand He could have your humour, but I don't understand 'Cause he'll never love you like I can, can, can Why are you looking down all the wrong roads? When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul There may be lovers who hold out their hands But they'll never love you like I can, can, can They'll never love you like I can, can A chance encounter of circumstance Maybe he's a mantra, keeps your mind entranced He could be the silence in this mayhem, but then again He'll never love you like I can, can, can Why are you looking down all the wrong roads? When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul There may be lovers who hold out their hands But they'll never love you like I can, can, can They'll never love you like I can, can, can They'll never love you like I can, can, can We both have demons, that we can't stand I love your demons, like devils can If you're self-seeking an honest man Then stop deceiving, Lord, please Why are you looking down all the wrong roads? When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul There may be lovers who hold out their hands But they'll never love you like I can, can, can They'll never love you like I can, can, can They'll never love you like I can, can, can
