Lyrics:
He could be a sinner, or a gentleman
He could be a preacher when your soul is damned
He could be a lawyer on a witness stand but
He'll never love you like I can, can

He could be a stranger you gave a second glance
He could be a trophy of a one night stand
He could have your humour but I don’t understand cos
He'll never love you like I can, can, can

Why are you looking down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can

A chance encounter of circumstance
Maybe he’s a mantra keeps your mind entranced
He could be the silence in this mayhem, but then again
He'll never love you like I can, can

Why are you looking down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can

We both have demons, that we can't stand
I love your demons like devils can
If you’re self-seeking an honest man
Then stop deceiving, lord please

Why are you looking down all the wrong roads?
When mine is the heart and the salt of the soul
There may be lovers who hold out their hands but
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can
They'll never love you like I can, can, can

    I discovered this song thanks to tiktok, and I’m wondering why I haven’t heard this earlier. Absolutely amazing!!
  • @Andy-we5og
    The songwriting the voice, the talent of this man is incredible
  • The way he sings the like “but mine is the heart and the salt of the soul.” is just magical. Best part of the song.
  • He used to be so dignified. I don’t know what happened to him. This is still my favorite song from him.

    Damn, this entire album helped me a lot during the time I realized how cold it feels when you love someone who doesn't love you back.

    Not ashamed that I stream the song every week. It is underrated, even after years I can still listen it for hours.

    It's October 26th, 2021 , let’s see who’s listening this masterpiece!
  • Hey you. Yes, you. You're probably scrolling through the comments, like I am, reading all these motivational comments. If you are reading this at night, you should get some sleep, and don't stress about everything going on in the world, or what you are going through. Don't dwell on things from the past, don't stress on your future. Just live your life, because you only get one. Do whatever makes you happy, not what other people want from you. For me, I'm gonna wake up tomorrow morning, hit the gym, and cherish life for the amazing blessing that it is. I hope you do the same and have an amazing day as well! Stay safe and stay relaxed.
  • Used to listen to this song when I had a major crush on this girl when I was 16. I now live with her and rediscovering this song was literally the best thing.
  • @Burty_YT
