All my pride and all my fears

Have been there so long

Funny how you try to change

When you can't say you're wrong

I could have done things better

I wanted to but I'm always too late

Borrowed lines from other guys

To make me sound good

Terrified to be myself

When I know that I should

I could have said things better

I wanted to but I'm always too late

I tried to be the man you need

You know I did my best to give you everything

I gave you every moment

Every dream and all my love

Which I thought was right

I wish you could have loved me the way that I'm designed

I wish you could have seen how hard I had to try

To be somebody else in somebody else's eyes

I wish you could have loved me they way that I'm designed

False starts and lost hearts

They follow me home

Like a dog or a stranger

That I feel sorry for

I could have made things better

I wanted to but I'm always too late

I tried to be the man you need

You know I did my best to give you everything

I gave you every moment

Every dream and all my love

Which I thought was right

I wish you could have loved me they way that I'm designed

I wish you could have seen how hard I had to try

To be somebody else in somebody else eyes

I wish you could have loved me they way that I'm designed
