i don't want your promises
and you can keep those lines
even though you're looking good
and acting far too kind ...
the pretty words you whisper to me
only make me laugh
and keep those little tacky things
you bought on my behalf ...
i'm looking for a real man
who's sure of who he is
it's not a million dollar question
or a high school quiz ...
just bring it to me honestly
and be just who you are
it shouldn't be that hard to do
it's nothing that's bizarre ...
if i'm asking too much
please be man enough to say so
while it would still be easy
to simply let you go.
