Satisfied

It's a common misconception

About a man's role in this world

A provider and survivor and

A winner who must never fail

But, oh, how he needs a woman

To reassure and give him strength

Through the darkest nights

And the hardest fights

When there's no other corner left

When the world outside is threatening

And all his dreams have been destroyed

Take him in your arms watch all his guards

Melt like a little boy

Tell him you really need him

Tell him you really care

Tell him you'll never leave him

He'll be satisfied

And he may not find it easy

To say what's on his mind

When he's full of doubt

Say, "We'll work it out"

God knows how hard he's trying

And he may never buy you roses

And forget to notice your hair

But as long as he says, "I love you, my dear"

That's all you need to hear

Tell him you really need him

Tell him you'll aways care

Tell him you'll never leave him

He'll be satisfied

And they say the heart's a hunter

But it's truth you can't deny

He may never be everything you want

But for you he'd lay down and die

So friday night when the phone rings

And he's stuck in a downtown bar

Roll away the stone

'Cause the last mile home

Is the longest mile of them all

Tell him you really need him

Tell him you'll always care

Tell him you'll never leave him

He'll be satisfied

Tell him you really want him

Tell him you understand

And tell him that you love him

He'll be satisfied
