Janis Ian The Man You Are in Me song lyrics

I love the light, I love the changing season

I love without much thought to reason

I'd give it all if I could make you see

I love the man that you were meant to be

I love the man you are in me

I love the man who waits beside you

I love the man who hides behind you

I love the shadow though it disappears

I love the afterglow reflected through the tears

I love the shadow in my tears

Mmm, I love the dreams you can't remember

Mmm, lost in the early waking hours

I love the season of forever

I'll live without the light of laughter

I'll live without an ever after

I'd give it all if I could make you see

I need the man that you were meant to be

I love the man you are in me
