James Lanman - The Man You Knew I'd Never Be Lyrics




I'll admit it
I thought I'd see your face
Somewhere out in that crowd
Though that shadow of doubt
It crept in like a cloud over me
Then came pouring down

I can't quit it
It's something about this place
And all these dim little rooms
They remind me of you
Two kids paying our dues
We were singing
Together

I heard you found a new love
Was he the one you were dreaming of?
When you'd had enough of me
And the man you knew I'd never be?

So just forget it
Cause I'm only passing through
Just pour a cold one for me
Scratch that
Make it a neat
I've got nowhere to be tonight
But these wheels keep turning

I heard you found a new love
Was he the one you were dreaming of?
When you'd had enough of me
And the man you knew I'd never ever be?

No, I can't get away
Cause every time I'm near you
It's like moths to the flame
Even though I know it's foolish
And there's nothing to gain...
Just like wishing away the rain

I heard you found a new love
Was he the one that you were dreaming of?
When you'd had enough of me
And the man you knew I'd never be?

The man you knew I'd never be

I heard you found a new love
Was he the one you were dreaming of?
When you'd had enough of me
And the man you knew I'd never be?
