I was the one   Who was undone, till you picked me up   So how did you fall so far from it all   Thought you were my rock   So why do you push me away      [chorus]   I'm not gonna stand here and watch you go down   I love you too much, no, I won't let you drown   And it just comes with being the man that I am    So forgive me, forgive me for giving a damn      Listen to me, I can't compete with this trip you're on   And if you decide to take that ride, I won't come along   Cause I know just where it leads      [chorus]   I'm not gonna stand here and watch you go down   I love you too much, no, I won't let you drown   And it just comes with being the man that I am    So forgive me, forgive me for giving a damn      I know you're scared and you just wanna run   Cause I've been there   I know where you're coming from      [chorus]   I'm not gonna stand here and watch you go down   I love you too much, no, I won't let you drown   And it just comes with being the man that I am    So forgive me, forgive me for giving a damn      Forgive me for giving a damn
