Wham had a hit called "I'm Your Man" (yes, I'm sure most of us would like to forget it, but it WAS huge) and Barry Manilow has a song with that title. Josh Turner had a country hit that was huge with the very similarly titled "Your Man." It's really a rather generic phrase--there's no reason at all to think that Jon can't write a completely different song with that title.
All valid points. My mind only went to that cover because he's done it so much lately.The song lengths are way off too.
