I once sought the man I wanted to be
Live a life bigger than his dreams
Hands on the wheel in total control
Keep strong, cool as needed
Glass half full endlessly
Oh, what a foolish fantasy
After some time I shifted my view
Tried for glory and wound abuse
I found my fans were just a
Never found that balance,
Learned from nothing and cursed it all
How can I be the man I want
Cause damn, I wanna love ya
Show you just what it is I really mean
Your man is the man I want to
When I was younger I dreamed of luxury
Now I'm eating with plastic cutlery
Stolen from a diner ages ago
And washed one too many times
I'm so in love with you, honey
Shadow of a doubt, if you take my hand
You know I'll serve you right
Anyone could love you better
We can break this stormy weather
See the lines between the tear stains
Oh, that is where I once wept for you
