The Man I Want To Be Lyrics - Gov't Mule

I'm here today 

There's some things I want to get off my chest 

Some things are starting real nice 

They say as we get older 

We get wiser and I 

I don't know if that's true 

But I know a fog's been lifted from my eyes 

You see it seems that sometimes 

When someone wins 

Someone has to lose 

I'm afraid I've been the winner too much 

But when it comes to me and you, baby 

Oh you've always been there 

There was times that I was gone 

You needed my touch

But you know I love you 

I know you do 

So tell me you never gave up on me 

I can be everything those people see 

Everything 

I can't be the man I want to be 

I refuse to listen, baby 

You try to tell me so many times 

I was headed down the wrong, weird street 

I got this one way ticket, baby 

I think I might have to cash it in 

Maybe coming home would be the best thing for me 

You see I don't want to lose you 

If I do, nobody wins 

Well I know it's up to me to make it right this time 

So give me one more chance, baby 

I swear I won't let you down 

Take my hand 

Let me say what's on my mind 

Photos 

I'm here today 

For so many things I want to say 

Some things I finally realize 

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder 

I don't know if that's really true 

But I know I dried a thousand tears from my eyes 

And you know I love you 

I know you do 

So tell me you never gave up on me 

I can be everything those people see 

Everything 

I can't be the man I want to be 

Oh 

Oh, I hear you, baby 

Oh, yeah 

You know I love you 

I know you do 

So tell me you never gave up on me 

I can be everything those people see 

Everything 

I can't be the man I want to be 

Oh 

I can't be the man I want to be 

I can't be the man I want to be 

I can't be the man I want to be 

I can't be the man I want to be 

Tell me now 

You know I love you 

I know you do 

So tell me you never gave up on me
