She walked out cause she thought I'd never change
I wasn't quite the type to rearrange
She gave up on me ever coming round
Well she sure would love the man that I am now

She always wished I'd spend more time at home
She begged me not to leave her there alone
These nights I never leave the house
She sure would love the man that I am now

All she ever wanted of me was someone to love and hold her tight
Wouldn't this brand new me surprise her holding her picture every night

She used to say we really need to talk
Well now I sit and talk to these four walls
And when I do it's her we talk about
And I know she'd love the man that I am now
[ guitar ]
All she wanted was to be part of my dreams
Now every night she's part of them it seems
I'd give the world if she could see somehow
Just a little of the man that I am now
I know she'd love the man that I am now
