Only Human
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sensitive that's what I am
Make no mistake about it
'Cause the little things
Certainly mean so much to me
Maybe I should tell you
That I have my faults
And there are no guarantees
Oh, baby can't you see
I'm only human
Don't ask me for too much, too fast
I'm only human
Babe, I'll be so very careful
Not to ever hurt you
Emotional
That's what I am
Feelings run deep inside me
I trust my heart and usually
It never lets me down
But every now and then I guess I lose my way
Like people often do
And that just goes to prove
I'm only human
Don't ask me for too much, too fast
I'm only human
Hey, babe, I'll be so very careful
Not to hurt you, baby
You know I love you
It's easy to see that I do
And I'll always do the best I can
But girl, I'm just a man
So darling, please be patient
If we both believe
We'll make changes as we go
I just want you to know
I'm only human, babe
Don't ask me for too much, too fast
I'm only human
I'll be so very careful with you, baby
I'm only human, baby
Don't ask me for too much, too fast
I'm only human, oh baby
Yeah, you know I'm just a man, baby
And I wanna be the very best that I can
I'm ony human
