Common Man
I have dreamed a dream, there a common manAh, hoping to rise to the topI have sworn by my blood as your man, my loveThat one day, I promiseOne day your hurting would stopBut I'll never never never never changeI never change one single grain of sandOh, thanks to you babyFor just loving a common manI want to thank you this eveningOh, I thought, I thought that I failed you soBut that's when you turn around and look me in my eyesAnd you let me knowYou said and you said it softlyI didn't have to worry about being a common manYou said, "David, you don't have to worry about rising to the top"You said, you said, you said I didn't have to swear by my bloodBut ah baby, that one day your heartaches would stopThen you put your arms around me and you saidYou never never never never caredIf I never change one single grain of sandYou said, "I love you, babyI love you for just being a common man"Letras de cancionesFor my gratitude just keep on growingYeah, for recognizing me, I thank you babyYeah, for respecting me, yeah I want to thank you, babyFor every time of need, Lord, I thank you babyOh for my gratitude, for respecting me, babyFor just being a common manAh I want to thank you babeIn a time of need, I want to thank you for respecting meIn a time of worry, I want to thank you for calming my troublesOh, I thank you babyThank you honey, for loving a common man like me
