Not the Man I Thought

Did you ever think we'd get this far

On our own?

How'd I go from being young

To feeling old?

I know I'm not the man I thought

I was gonna be

But I'm happy

I needed space, a time and place

To drift alone and come of age

The wind that shakes, the noise she makes

Through passing clouds, I heard a sound

Soft as touch, too young to rust

Your state of mind will grow in time

So marry me beneath a tree

On solid ground, we make our stand

I've been in love and seen the world

And this is just the start

I've been on top and felt the drop

It hurt a lot

Why do we fall

To pick ourselves back up?

Why do we fall

To pick ourselves back up?

You will fall, you will fail

You will falter

You will fear, you may fight in the face of danger

It's only human to be caught by conflicting nature

Don't go making a big deal about it

Don't go making a big deal about anything

Don't go making a big deal about me
