Red Jacket Lyrics

Well, I don’t have a red jacket like James Dean

And I’m not as handsome as Springsteen

But maybe I could offer more than a schoolgirl crush

That still hangs on your wall

You won’t find me in this month’s Rolling Stone

You can’t hear my voice at the touch of your hand

But I could do things your records can’t do

If I was your music man

Well I could be with you in silence

And I could hold onto you when it storms

I’ll dance with you and when the music stops

I’ll still be there to keep you warm

I don’t have a million dollars

And strumming this guitar is all I know

See, there’s two reasons I get out of bed each day

And loving you is my favorite one of those

Cause I want to be on you like your lipstick

And be as close as your shadow when I can

Yes I would do things your records can’t do

If you let me be your music man

I would be with you in silence

And I would hold onto you when it storms

I’ll dance with you and when the music stops

I’ll still be there to keep you warm

But sometimes records wear out

And songs don’t mean what they did before

And it’s true that hearts can sometimes break like needles

But we will take off our headphones, we will write a new song every time

I will be with you in silence

I will hold onto you when it storms

I’ll dance with you and when the music stops

I will still be there to keep you warm

If I was your music man

Just let me be your music man

If I was your music man
