The man I need to be
To the one that got away I tip my heart to you
memories of yesterday don’t seem to get me through
you softly whispered in my ear you'd come back to me
when someday I become the man I need to be
jealousy reared its ugly head instead of giving trust
sorry I grew angry when our issues were discussed
I swear I’ll calm these waves in my life’s stormy sea
when someday I become the man I need to be
how can one be so blind, miss the beauty of your love
such gentleness in your touch much like a peaceful dove
promising a day will come when my anger is set free
when someday I become the man I need to be
if one lesson has been learned, hearts can actually ache
given one more chance with you is a chance I’d gladly take
I still dream of the day I can get down on one knee
when someday I become the man I need to be
