In my heart of hearts
I know it well
Been giving myself the soft sell
Anyone can see that I´ve
been running away
Not facing the day that´s here
It´s time to man up
I´m man enough
it´s time to man up
I´m man enough
I´m man enough for you
it´s time to man up
The phone is off, the
blinds are down
Me and my heart are out of town
The sign is hammered up
Do not disturb
don´t say another word to me
It´s time to man up
I´m man enough
I´m man enough for you
it´s time to man up
I´m man enough
I´m man enough for you
it´s time to man up
In my heart of hearts
I know it well
I hit the ground hard when I fell
Not licking wounds but more
like sewing them up
Man it was rough for me
But it´s time to man up
I´m man enough
I´m man enough for you
it´s time to man up
I´m man enough
I´m man enough for you
it´s time to man up
