I’m a man, therefore I’m proud
And I hide away all my fears and doubts
And I hope that you’ll never find me out
Now I’m brave enough to say the words I learned
What you mean to a heart like mine
You took my dreams and redefined them
Make me feel like my souls entwined
That’s why I’m sorry for the things I said last night
I’ve been struggling, I’ve been hurt
Guess that’s what I thought I deserved
I got drunk to try and pretend I didn’t care
And now I’m calling you for a truce
Finally ready to tell the truth
I can face it as long as I am here with you
I’m a man, I’m ocean deep
What you know of me is what I let you see
My soil is rich with secrets sworn to keep
But with you my tongue is loose, my heart is free
I’ve been struggling, I’ve been hurt
Guess that’s what I thought I deserved
I got drunk to try and pretend I didn’t care
And now I’m calling you for a truce
Finally ready to tell the truth
I can face it as long as I am here with you
I’m a man, sure I’m true
But I would be nothing without you
Your warm embrace it sees me through
As sure as the grass is green, as sure as the sky is blue
I’ve been struggling, I’ve been hurt
Guess that’s what I thought I deserved
I got drunk to try and pretend I didn’t care
And now I’m calling you for a truce
Finally ready to tell the truth
I can face it as long as I am here with you
I’m a man, sure I’m true
But I would be nothing without you
