Be Your Man

(album: Things I Chose To Remember - 2020)

Well, I can't kiss you like he did
Bet you wish I had his lips
But I don't, no, I don't
And I can't hold you quite the same
Guess my arms don't seem as safe
When it's cold, when it's cold

You got me feeling like I don't deserve you
And I'm trying to deal with this pain
But it kills me 'cause I know you still love him
So now you gotta let go of someone
'Cause while you're holding on to what you had
You're not giving me a chance
To ever really be your man

You say you're fine, you're moving on
Say that I'm the only one
But I know, yes, I know
That I'm in his shadow all the time
'Cause he still creeps up on your mind
Like a ghost, like a ghost

You got me feeling like I don't deserve you
And I'm trying to deal with this pain
But it kills me 'cause I know you still love him
So now you gotta let go of someone
'Cause while you're holding on to what you had
You're not giving me a chance
To ever really be your man

But if you let me, I could set your world on fire
Give you something better than you've ever had
And if you let me in, girl we'd have everything
But it's like your heart is stuck in the past

And it kills me 'cause I know you still love him
So now you gotta let go of someone
'Cause while you're holding on on to what you had
You're not giving me a chance
To ever really be your man
