If I were a better man
You'd wake up everyday with a smile on your face
Each bad day, would have a good day in its place
And for regret, guilt and shame, there would be no space.
If I were a better man
You'd never have things like your feelings, be hurt
Back to sense, all things that don't make sense, would revert
And behind every corner, happiness would lurk
If I were a better man
For everything untrue, 2 things that are true would grow
You wouldn't be afraid to let your true colors show
And it would take a lot less than funny paint, to make you glow
If I were a better man
On the beach, hand in hand we'd walk
I'd know exactly what you were thinking, no need to talk
And we'd have our hearts open to each other, never behind a keyless lock
I dream these dreams when I close my eyes,
Betwixt the broken heart and sobbing cries
With hopes to becoming this better man for you by no longer living these lies.
