When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

When I come home yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man whos coming home to you
And when I'm dreamin' well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the times when I'm with you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm workin' yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's workin' hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I'll do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you

When I'm lonely, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man whose lonely without you
And if I grow old, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

But I would walk 500 miles
And I would walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walked 1000 miles
To fall down at your door (2x)

When I wake up, well I hope I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's waking up to you
And when I'm dreamin' well I know I'm gonna dream
I'm gonna dream about the time I had with you
