She walked out cause she thought I'd never change  I wasn't quite the type to rearrange  She gave up on me ever coming round  Well she sure would love the man that I am now    She always wished I'd spend more time at home  She begged me not to leave her there alone  These nights I never leave the house  She sure would love the man that I am now    All she ever wanted of me was someone to love and hold her tight  Wouldn't this brand new me surprise her holding her picture every night    She used to say we really need to talk  Well now I sit and talk to these four walls  And when I do it's her we talk about  And I know she'd love the man that I am now  [ guitar ]  All she wanted was to be part of my dreams  Now every night she's part of them it seems  I'd give the world if she could see somehow  Just a little of the man that I am now  I know she'd love the man that I am now
