The Man I Could Not Be
Listen son to my confession
I'm not as strong
As I might seem
You are my hopes and dreams
You could be the man I could not be
So many chances to make a choice between
What was right and what was easy
I hope see
That you could be a man I could not be
The man I could not be
Will always stand for what is right
The man I could not be
Will be a friend to rely on
The man I could not be
Would never take advantage of any soul
He'd keep it under control
Nature, nurture
Didn't matter much
I crossed the line
I thought I wouldn't touch
It's all on me
To own up to all my misery
Listen boy
It won't be easy
But I see your joy
And I believe
You're better tuned to see
How to be the man I could not be
The man I could not be
Will always stand for what is right
The man I could not be
Will be a friend to rely on
The man I could not be
Would never take advantage of any soul
He'd keep it under control
The man I could not be
Can see beyond
The dark night of this soul
See something more than the toll
And keep the lights on
I'm not as strong
As I might seem
You are my hopes and dreams
You could be the man I could not be
So many chances to make a choice between
What was right and what was easy
I hope see
That you could be a man I could not be
The man I could not be
Will always stand for what is right
The man I could not be
Will be a friend to rely on
The man I could not be
Would never take advantage of any soul
He'd keep it under control
Nature, nurture
Didn't matter much
I crossed the line
I thought I wouldn't touch
It's all on me
To own up to all my misery
Listen boy
It won't be easy
But I see your joy
And I believe
You're better tuned to see
How to be the man I could not be
The man I could not be
Will always stand for what is right
The man I could not be
Will be a friend to rely on
The man I could not be
Would never take advantage of any soul
He'd keep it under control
The man I could not be
Can see beyond
The dark night of this soul
See something more than the toll
And keep the lights on
