Lyrics
I man just a man
A singer in the band
You know the story
Every night I try to make my rounds
I'm just a lonesome guy
Head up in the sky
Those who came before me
Have shown me the way to come back down
I sing for you tonight
With my arms open wide
I try to do what I can
When I can't I just pretend
And I wouldn't have it any other way
I come in like the wind
I don't know where I been
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm kicking up some dust along the way
Up on the stage
I try to act my age
I try to be honest
But sometimes I just don't know what to say
I sing for you tonight
With my arms open wide
I try to do what I can
When I can't I just pretend
And I wouldn't have it any other way
It isn't like it seems
I'm never coming clean
I am just an ashtray
I fill up on what you leave behind
I don't know what it means
It comes to me in dreams
It only makes me wonder
Where I might have gone and who I might have been
I sing for you tonight
With my arms open wide
I try to do what I can
When I can't I just pretend
And I wouldn't have it any other way
No I wouldn't have it any other way
No I wouldn't have it any other way
