When the moon cuts through the dark like a knife
I close my eyes and dream about a better life
Yeah, I know it don’t always go like in the songs
But still I sing along
Maybe he’s out there feelin’ the same
Prayin’ for someone to ease the pain
Might sound foolish, might sound blind
But I still believe in that man of mine
One day he’ll walk in
The man I love
He’ll be rough around the edges
But soft enough
To hold my heart like it’s made of glass
And not run from a broken past
He’ll look at me with those tired eyes
And I’ll see right through his worn-out lies
We won’t need nothin’ fancy to say
Just one touch and we’ll both wanna stay
Maybe he’ll show up on a Sunday
Or some rainy, nowhere Monday
Maybe I’ve passed him once or twice
But missed him blinded by the night
Could be Tuesday brings the change
When love don’t feel so far away
He’ll build a little home
Not much to show
Just four walls and a porch light glow
But I’d stay there like it’s all I need
Even if it’s just a dream I feed
Yeah, maybe I’ll meet him Sunday
Maybe Monday, maybe not
But deep down I still got faith
Even when my heart forgot
Could be Tuesday saves the day
Maybe love ain’t lost its way
He’ll build a life, just me and him
With quiet nights and no more sin
No more runnin’, no more lies
Just the truth hid behind his eyes
And till that day stars fall above
I’m holdin’ out for the man I love
