Songtext Man of steel Meat Loaf

Man of steel

Woman (Spoken):
Touch me
I'm so afraid to draw you close
Hold me
Before my hands fall away
I'll suffocate
If I can't breathe you in
And hold you there
Forever

Meatloaf:
I left a message at the hotel
They said you checked out
They said you ain't coming back
I tried to call you
But you turned off your cell
And it said at the tone
Just leave me alone

And I fall apart at the seams
It seems that I always, always fall apart
But as strong as I am
Why can't I break you heart?

I remember how it used to be
Making love to you all night long
I used to take you in my arms
And hold you there until all my strength was gone
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel

I built this prison that I thought was a home
And we both lived here
Guess you were living alone
I'd tear it down if you would only have asked
And I would build you a bridge
So you could come back

And I fall apart at the seams
It seems that I always, always fall apart
But as strong as I am
Why can't I break you heart?

I remember how it used to be
Making love to you all night long
I used to take you in my arms
And hold you there until all you fears were gone
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I used to be a man of steel
I used to take you in my arms

Girl:
Hey, now tell me why can't you just
Break my heart?

Meatloaf:
I used to be a man of steel
And I used to take you in my arms

Girl:
I love you right from the start
Now you can't tear my world apart

Meatloaf:
I used to be a man of steel
Now every bit of faith is gone

Girl:
You used to be so strong
Now you can't even break my heart

Meatloaf:
I used to be a man of steel
I used to take you in my arms
What's it going to take for us to break down?
And finally fall

Girl: Fall

Meatloaf & Girl:
Apart at the seams
It seems that I always fall apart

Girl: As strong as you are
Meatloaf: As strong as I am...
Girl: Why can't you break my...

Meatloaf & Girl: Heart
