[Verse 1 — male vocal, quiet, holding back] I come in late with the field on my boots, House is quiet, supper's gone cold. You smile when you see me — least, I think you do, But a man gets to wonderin' as the years take hold. [Pre-chorus — male vocal] So before this question turns to stone, There's somethin' I gotta know... [Chorus — male vocal, asking] Am I still the one that makes your heart race? Still the name you whisper in the dark? [Chorus — female vocal, answering] You're still the only man who's ever had Every stubborn piece of this heart. [Chorus — male vocal] Then tell me plain, so a fool can see — [Chorus — female vocal] Love me out loud, and you'll always be. [Verse 2 — female vocal, warm, giving her terms as answers] If you're gonna love me, love me all the way, Kiss me at the red light, dance me in the rain. And when the words get hard, just stay and hold my hand — Stayin' is the answer, baby; that's my kind of man. [Chorus — male vocal, asking, bigger] Am I still the one that makes your heart race? Still the name you whisper in the dark? [Chorus — female vocal, answering] You're still the only man who's ever had Every stubborn piece of this heart. [Chorus — male vocal] Then tell me plain, so a fool can see — [Chorus — female vocal] Love me out loud, and you'll always be. [Bridge — male vocal, quiet confession] I'm the one that loves you. I'm tryin' to show you. I don't know how to love you fancy — All I know is bein' me. [Bridge — female vocal, quiet confession] They told me, "Girl, be strong, you don't need a man," But strong don't hold me when the nights get long. I can stand on my own two feet just fine — I still choose your hand in mine. [Bridge — female vocal, then both together] Then be you, baby. Bein' you is what I fell for. That's the answer. That's always been the answer. [Final chorus — both voices intertwining, overlapping, he lets loose] I AM still the one (the only one) that makes your heart race, Still the name (the only name) you whisper in the dark! You're still the only man — You're still the only woman — Who's ever had every stubborn piece of this heart! No more askin', no more maybe — You're mine (I'm yours), I'm yours (you're mine), forever, baby.
