Never a Strange Man - Hitsville Drunks

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 If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am It's getting harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see A man I'll never be I can't get any stronger And 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 Can't get any stronger And 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 still 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 I can't keep hidin' this feeling

I was lucky as a child Mama taught us right from wrong And how Jesus loves us all Though they barely did get by I never saw them cry They said when things get rough You gotta pick yourself up Now, the years have taken me Down a twisted crazy street At times I've drifted off The path that I should walk And Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries It's hard to let my feelings show The ones I love don't always know Like I'm leadin' my horse blind To a place that I can't find But I know I can't complain I've seen more sun than I have rain When I look at where I've come Who I am and what I've done, oh I know And Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries Jesus helped me through some hard times My wife and children by my side I'm not perfect by a long mile No matter how I try But I've been blessed enough in my life To make up for any strife If you look closely deep in my eyes You might see a few happy tears From a man who never cries From a man who never cries From a man who never cries
