You came 'round today
You never even knocked on my door
Your note tried to say
That you don't love me no more

Bridge:
I want you by my side cause
I want to be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I want to be your man

I had to be told
From people that I meet in the street
They are turning cold
Without you I would not be complete

I want you by my side cause
I want to be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I want to be your man

Why did you write me in a letter
A word from you would be much better

I want you by my side cause
I want to be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I want to be your man

Don't cast me aside
Without you I could never survive
Why did you decide
To kill the love that keeps me alive

I want you by my side cause
I want to be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I want to be your man
