Common Man

I have dreamed a dream, there a common man
 Ah, hoping to rise to the top
 I have sworn by my blood as your man, my love
 That one day, I promise
 One day your hurting would stop
 But I'll never never never never change
 I never change one single grain of sand
 Oh, thanks to you baby
 For just loving a common man
 I want to thank you this evening
 Oh, I thought, I thought that I failed you so
 But that's when you turn around and look me in my eyes
 And you let me know
 You said and you said it softly
 I didn't have to worry about being a common man
 You 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 blood
 But ah baby, that one day your heartaches would stop
 Then you put your arms around me and you said
 You never never never never cared
 If I never change one single grain of sand
 You said, "I love you, baby
 I love you for just being a common man"
 For my gratitude just keep on growing
 Yeah, for recognizing me, I thank you baby
 Yeah, for respecting me, yeah I want to thank you, baby
 For every time of need, Lord, I thank you baby
 Oh for my gratitude, for respecting me, baby
 For just being a common man
 Ah I want to thank you babe
 In a time of need, I want to thank you for respecting me
 In a time of worry, I want to thank you for calming my troubles
 Oh, I thank you baby
 Thank you honey, for loving a common man like me
