A#
That's all I wanted
G#
Something special, something sacred
A#
In your eyes
For just one moment
G#
To be bold and naked
At your side
F# G#
Sometimes I think that you'll never
A#
Understand me
F# G#
Maybe this time is forever
F
Say it can be
That's all you wanted
Something special, someone sacred
In your life
Just for one moment
To be warm and naked
At my side
Sometimes I think that you'll never
Understand me
But something tells me together
We'd be happy
(Baby)
A#
I will be your father figure
(Oh baby)
Put your tiny hand in mine
(I'd love to)
G#
I will be your preacher teacher
(Be your daddy)
Anything you have in mind
(It would make me)
A#
I will be your father figure
(Very happy)
I have had enough of crime
(Please let me)
G#
I will be the one who loves you
A#
Until the end of time
That's all I wanted
But sometimes love can be mistaken
For a crime
That's all I wanted
Just to see my baby's
Blue eyed shine
This time I think that my lover
Understands me
If we have faith in each other
Then we can be
Strong
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
I will be the one who loves you
Until the end of time

F# G#
If you are the desert
F#
I'll be the sea
F# G#
If you ever hunger
F#
Hunger for me
F# G#
Whatever you ask for
F F#
That's what I'll be
G# F#
So when you remember the ones who have lied
G#
Who said that they cared?
F#
But then laughed as you cried
G#
Beautiful Darling
F
Don't think of me
A# (solo) G#
Because all I ever wanted
A# G#
It's in your eyes baby, baby
A#
And love can't lie, no...
F# G# A#
(Greet me with the eyes of a child)
F#
My love is always tell me to...
G#
(Heaven is a kiss and a smile)
F
Just hold on, hold on
A#
I won't let you go, my baby
I will be your father figure
Put your tiny hand in mine
I will be your preacher teacher
Anything you have in mind
I will be your father figure
I have had enough of crime
(So I am gonna love you)
Until the end of time
I will be your father
I will be your preacher
I will be your daddy
I will be the one who loves you until the end of time

I am not sure solo is correct but it's better than nothing, don't you
think?
