A Man I'll Never Be

(Tom Scholz)

 

If I said what's on my mind, you'd turn and walk away

Disappearing way back in your dreams

It's so hard to be unkind, so easy just to say

That everything is just the way it seems

 

You look up at me, and somewhere in your mind you see

A man I'll never be

 

(Chorus)

If only I could find a way

I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am

And it gets harder every day for me

To hide behind this dream you see

A man I'll never be

 

(Second Verse)

I can't get any stronger, I can't climb any higher

You'll never know just how hard I've tried

Cry a little longer, and hold a little tighter

Emotions can't be satisfied

 

You look up at me, and somewhere in your mind you see

A man I'll never be

 

If only I could find a way

I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am

And it gets harder every day for me

To hide behind this dream you see

A man I'll never be

 

I can't get any stronger, I can't climb any higher

You'll never know just how hard I've tried

Cry a little longer, and hold a little tighter

Emotions can't be satisfied

 

If only I could find a way

I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am

To hide behind this dream you see

 A man I'll never be.
