Man I Thought You Were

Lay down and I try to close my eyes

Pictures dancing, memories gone by

Wonder if it's this hard for you at night

Every now and then I find something you left

My heart stops until I catch my breath

And I can't forget you yet

'Cause you're a summer sun in a cold winter breeze

Gives you just enough to knock you off your feet

And I fell like you can only fall the first time

You would tear me down just to build me back up

Leave me praying that you loved me just as much

And the truth wasn't what I deserved

So much, for the man I thought you were

I bet she's not too different from me

A trusting heart just yearning to believe

Every idealistic dream

A perfect man, a perfect fantasy

She can wish, but you will never be

No you'll never be, what she needs

'Cause you're a summer sun in a cold winter breeze

Gives you just enough to knock you off your feet

And I fell like you can only fall the first time

You would tear me down just to build me back up

Leave me praying that you loved me just as much

And the truth wasn't what I deserved

So much, for the man I thought you were

I wish I could tell her everything she put me through

But I can't hate her, cause I know she'll find out soon

'Cause you're a summer sun in a cold winter breeze

Gives you just enough to knock you off your feet

And I fell like you can only fall the first time

You would tear me down just to build me back up

Leave me praying that you loved me just as much

And the truth wasn't what I deserved

So much, for the man I thought you were
