作曲：

At first you seemed just like my dream of a finer better life

Much more than I could ask for in a lover or a wife

Though I work with my body and my work makes my hands rough

There are gentle things inside me that are anythin' but tough

There are lessons you could teach me things I do not know

Things I've never done girl and places we could go

But you only wear your tailored suits for me to rip and tear

Ah can't I hold you quietly and smell your perfumed hair

I saw you as the answer that I never dared to dream

I saw you as the window into a world I'd never seen

I saw you as the vision come to raise me from the mud

But you came to use my sweat to cool the fever in your blood

I'm not Marlon Brando on his motorcycle bike

When you call me your animal it's a name I do not like

Oh please do not tear my back yes of course I bleed

The violence you thirst for is not what I need

Your silken skin is armor that begs for brutal hands

But why can't I be gentle and tell you of my plans

And I know now that you're usin' me not I just usin' you

And you're not so scared of losin' me as I of losin' you

At first you seemed just like my dream of a finer better life

Much more than I could ask for in a lover or a wife

Though I work with my body and my work makes my hands rough

There are gentle things inside me that are anythin' but tough

I saw you as the answer that I never dared to dream

I saw you as the window into a world I'd never seen

I saw you as the vision come to raise me from the mud

But you came to use my sweat to cool the fever in your blood
