Far Too Good To A Man Like Me

(album: A Hundred Highways - 2022)

It's the way that I can't seem to get it right
Even though I've tried a million times
It's the weight that I can't carry
It's the shame that I can't bury
Like a thorn that's stuck here in my side

It's the times You've never turned to walk away
Even when I lie right to Your face
It's the love that keeps on giving
It's the voice that says forgiven
When You know I've abused You for Your grace

Why did it take so long for me to notice
Why did it take so long for me to see
I took You for granted but You take me as I am
You've been far too good to a man like me

Love like this is hard to understand
But the proof is in the scars upon Your hands
And I know I don't deserve it
Heaven knows I tried to earn it
But I just failed, time and time again

Why did it take so long for me to notice
Why did it take so long for me to see (Yeah)
I took You for granted but You take me as I am
You've been far too good to a man like me

Yeah
Far too good to a man like me
Yeah
You've been far too good to man like me

There are parts of me that only You have seen
And I wouldn't blame You if You tried to leave
But You never asked for perfect
You just told me I was worth it
And my heart is all You want from me

So why did it take so long for me to notice
Why did it take so long for me to see (Yeah)
I took You for granted but You take me as I am

Why did it take so long for me to notice
Why did it take so long for me to see (Yeah)
I took You for granted but You take me as I am
You've been far too good to a man like me
Oh You've been far too good to a man like me
Still You are for too good to a man like me
