The Man You Need |
| I never did believe |
| That I would end up losing you this way |
| As far as I could see |
| The life we had was always gonna stay |
| And I tried to be |
| The man you need |
| I’ll never understand |
| What I expected out of loving you |
| The way we had it planned |
| There always could be |
| Room enough for two |
| To live and grow |
| How could I know |
| I wouldn’t be the man you need |
| And I wanna know why |
| Yeah, I wanna know how |
| Say I wanna know where |
| Everything went wrong |
| And I’m sorry, 'cause I love you |
| You told me more than once |
| I never understood my way around |
| The way that things worked out |
| I’m still not really sure |
| Of where I’m bound |
| You knew me well |
| I should have seen |
| I couldn’t be the man you need |
| And I reach for the sky |
| I reach for the stars |
| And all of the time |
| I was reaching for you |
| And I’m sorry, 'cause I love you |
| Say it now again |
| I’m holdin' on |
| I’ve only just begun |
| To learn the meaning of not having you |
| I thought for sure |
| That I would be the man |
| You need forever more |
| That I would be the man |
| You need forever more |
| I want to be the man |
| You need forever more |
