The Man I Used To Be

Verse1

As I stand here

I see you

here in my mind

I wanna hold you

in my arms

I wanna love you

but I can't

I have to turn you away

 

Verse2

I can't do this anymore

I can't live that way

that life style

isn't for me

I have to turn and walk

away

 

Chorus

'Cause I'm not that man

anymore

The Man I Used To Be

I can't live that life

anymore

The Man I Used To Be

I have to walk

away

say goodbye to

The Man I Used To Be

 

Verse3

He keeps creepin'

around my mind

I have to shut him

down

say no

say goodbye

to a person who didn't care

goodbye

to a person who chased

the wrong women

to a person who was blind

thank you God in Heaven

for makin' me see

 

(solo)

 

Verse4

I'm not perfect

I never will be

but by the Grace of God

I'll do my very best

God makes miracles

God makes away

when there seems

to be no way at all

let God work in me

God please save me

 

Repeat Chorus

...Let God work in me

God please save me

and my family
