The Man I Am

Charlie and the Foxtrots

Lyrics

I thought I'd learned the come and go
Will I be selfish or alone
Always alone

I'll stay the night with you instead 
Escape the walls in my head 
These walls I dread

So just lay your head to rest on me
Stay till nothing's troubling you
Feel free to take my grin
I trust it'll find a safer ending too
For the fool I was sees nothing in the truth
And the man I am is only passing through

Marked walls by the door entail
Past hopes and ancient lovers fail
Always fail

Wine and whiskey will rewind
Catch me at a better time
Another time

So just lay your head to rest on me
Stay till nothing's troubling you
Feel free to take my grin
I trust it'll find a safer ending too
For the fool I was sees nothing in the truth
And the man I am is only passing through
