From the recording Looking Back
Sometimes it's better to part ways than to lose who you are.
Lyrics
I Was Your Man
There’s no one can take you away from your soul
There’s no one can change you if you won’t let go.
It’s not because you mean to hurt, it’s just the way you are.
‘Least that’s what you told me in your last postcard.
It’s not through lack of wanting you
Need was strong as it could be
It’s just that when I look into your restless eyes I see.
There’s no one can take you away from your soul
There’s no one can change you if you won’t let go.
It’s not because you mean to hurt, it’s just the way you are.
‘Least that’s what you told me in your last postcard.
It wasn’t just the way you sighed
That made me change my mind
Through all our times together
I know that we both tried.
It’s not through lack of wanting you
Need was strong as it could be
It’s just that when I look into your restless eyes I see.
There’s no one can take me away from my soul
There’s no one can change me cause I won’t let go.
It’s not because I mean to hurt, it’s just the way I am.
‘Least that’s what I found out, while I was your man.
