What a Man

I had a man

He loved me so

His heart was small

It wouldn't grow

I loved a man

I loved him well

My love was strong

He couldn't tell

I had a love

I got it right

I was so wrong

It wasn't right

I had a home

I held his hand

He let me go

Oh, what a man

I held my sun

I held him close

He burned me up

And then he froze

I held a heart

It wasn't mine

When he came looking

I wasn't kind

Said, I had a dream

I had a love

I closed my eyes

Saw what it was

I saw the beast

I held his hand

He let me go

Oh, what a man!

Oh, what a man!

Oh, what a man!

PREACHER!

Make me a believer

Of your word

'Cause I've heard it all

Yes, I've heard it all

CREATURE!

You make me a deceiver

Of the worst

When I heed your call
