Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm extremely cheap
I snore when I go to sleep
The little bit of nothing I have left
I'm struggling and trying to keep
[Verse 3]
Your friends may all agree
You could name a million things I'll never be
You feel like flying, feel free
'Cause know that you can do better than me
[Verse 4]
I'm a simple man
I'm doing everything I can
When God sent you my way
It was the moment my life began
[Verse 5]
You stood by me through the storm
Well, I was hoping you'd have my hand
I wish I understood how you were strong enough to understand
'Cause see, no one is crazy enough to love me but you
[Verse 6]
Never thought of myself as much to see
Material things don't mean much to me
A good father, husband, and a working man
Are sometimes so much to be
[Verse 7]
And all them bills are due
I can't afford to buy you nothing new
And we don't talk like we used to
I know that loving me is hard on you
[Verse 8]
But you know I try
You are the completion of I
As long as we're in love
I'll never be ready to die
[Verse 9]
We've come such a long way
And sometimes wanna ask you why
You continue to be the only star in my entire sky
Because no one is crazy enough to love me but you
[Verse 10]
You see, girl, you know I try
You are the completion of I
As long as we're in love
I'll never be ready to die
[Verse 11]
We've come such a long way
And sometimes I want to ask you why
You continue to be the only star in my entire sky
But see no one is crazy enough to love me but you
