I'm Just A Man Lyrics

In this quiet lonely town where the sun sets low and brown

I sit and reflect on my life a tale of heartache struggle and strife

I've held love in my hands let it slip away fade like the end of a day

promises I made broken in time wishing I could rewind fix every damn crime

I've stood at the edge looked back at my past every love I've lost gone too fast

I'm just a man trying to be better mending my heart piece by piece letter by letter

But every new love the same old refrain an endless circle of sorrow and pain

Too much pain

I found her in the moonlight a gentle embrace thought I'd changed but it's the same old race

Her eyes were hopeful her smile so bright but my shadow's return stole the light

I tried to be strong to hold on tight but my demons came back in the dead of night

Regrets a heavy burden hard to bear in this life of mine filled with despair

I see her tears feel her pain knowing I'm the reason for the rain

I stand in the ruins of another failed dream

echoes of love like a distant scream

I swear each time it'll be different I'll change but history repeats familiar and strange

Lonely nights haunted by her face wishing I could find my place

Hopes a fleeting whisper soft and low in this world of mine where shadows grow

I pray for strength to break this chain to find a way out of the rain

I'm just a man trying to be better mending my heart piece by piece letter by letter

But every new love the same old refrain an endless circle of sorrow and pain oh so much pain

As the sun sets on another day I pick up my guitar find the words to say

a song of regret of love's bitter end hoping someday my heart will mend
