In Spite of Myself

I know that there's nights I stay out too late

And times I forget to call

It's true I might argue at the drop of a hat

Or make a big deal out of nothing at all

I'm not much for rules but I'm faithful and true

She knows on the inside I'm good

What she sees in me ain't half as important

As what she overlooks

And I wouldn't blame her if she said goodbye

Cause she ain't like nobody else

And I must be the luckiest man alive

Cause she loves me in spite of myself

I know she must wonder if she made the right choice

And sometimes I wonder too

It must be hard watchin' a man like me

Trying to make all of her dreams come true

I promised the moon and the stars in the sky

On the night that she promised her love

And I haven't come through though I'm trying to

She says that's more than enough

And I wouldn't blame her if she said goodbye

Cause she ain't like nobody else

And I must be the luckiest man alive

Cause she loves me in spite of myself

In spite of myself
