Jonathan Larson, Jesse L. Martin and Wilson Jermaine Heredia - I'll Cover You

Live in my house
I'll be your shelter
Just pay me back
With one thousand kisses
Be my lover
and I'll cover you

Open your door
I'll be your tenant
Don't got much baggage to lay at your feet
But sweet kisses I've got to spare
I'll be there and I'll cover you

I think they meant it
When they said you can't buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease, you are my love
On life, be my life

Just slip me on
I'll be your blanket
Wherever, whatever
I'll be your coat

You'll be my king
And I'll be your castle

No, you'll be my queen
And I'll be your moat

I think they meant it
When they said you can't buy love
Now I know you can rent it
A new lease, you are my love
On life, all my life

I've longed to discover
Something as true as this is

So, with a thousand sweet kisses

If you're cold and you're lonely

I'll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses

You've got one nickel only

I'll cover you

With a thousand sweet kisses

When you're worn out and tired

I'll cover you
With a thousand sweet kisses

When your heart has expired

I'll cover you

Oh, lover
I'll cover you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, lover
I'll cover you
