I know I haven't given you all you'd thought I'd be
I've shown so very little of what you must have seen in me
the heart you fell in love with the way I made you smile
the one you put your trust in a kiss that drove you wild
I wanna be that man not the stranger that I have been
Now I know that I've got to be beside you and show you every day
I can live up to your love and I can place my world in your hands
with no doubts left of me more than anything I wanna be that man
I can feel you reaching in when you look at me
I can see you searching for who I used to be
I know what it looks like and what he couldn't stand to lose
I know the words he needs to say and what it takes to walk in those shoes
I wanna be that man not the stranger that I have been
Now I know that I've got to be beside you and show you every day
I can live up to your love and I can place my world in your hands
with no doubts left of me more than anything I wanna be that man
Why you haven't given up is a mystery to me
You must have faith in us you must believe
I wanna be that man not the stranger that I have been
Now I know that I've got to be beside you and show you every day
I can live up to your love and I can place my world in your hands
with no doubts left of me more than anything I wanna be that man
With no doubts left of me more than anything
I wanna be that man
