The Has-Been Lyrics

I've seen you looking in the mirror

To see if you still know him

A man with tired eyes

Greying hair and too much working

Maybe your youth has finally left you

And you're searching for some glory

Maybe you're a has-been

All you've got is stories

Let me tell you honey

I wouldn't trade you for the world

You're a has-been kind of man

It only makes me love you more

You're a has-been

Right there when I needed you

You're a has-been

You stuck around when it made no sense to stay

And you have been there

When walking out might have been better

One thing I know

You have been there for me

Honey let me be your mirror

To show you truth that you can't see

A man with gentle eyes

Who presses into pressing needs

I see love between the lines on your face

I'll be the one to read it

One thing's for sure

You have been there for me

You're a has-been

Right there when I needed you

You're a has-been

You stuck around when it made no sense to stay

And you have been there

When walking out might have been better

One thing I know

You have been there for me

I can't tell you

You made all the right choices

Cause I can't tell you

Where those other paths go

I don't say it near enough

But tonight, I've found my voice

Maybe I can help you see

The has-been that I know

You're a has-been

Right there when I needed you

You're a has-been

You stuck around when it made no sense to stay

And you have been there

When walking out might have been better

One thing's for sure

You have been there for me
