Blue Rodeo - I Could Never Be That Man lyrics
rate meI've got my reasons for holding back<br />
<br />
Can't give my trust too fast<br />
<br />
I've pulled myself out of the wreck<br />
Too many times<br />
<br />
<br />
To think that words can last<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You need someone to help you<br />
<br />
<br />
When you're down<br />
<br />
Pick you like a pearl from the sand<br />
Somebody who is devoted to you<br />
<br />
Right beside you when you take a stand<br />
I could never be that man<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
You have a special shrine in your room<br />
<br />
<br />
Pictures of lovers on the wall<br />
I loved to lie there and look into their eyes<br />
<br />
So confident before you let them fall<br />
<br />
<br />
Will you tell me please<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
How you get them off their knees<br />
Twirling round you fast as they can<br />
How did you know<br />
<br />
That it worries me so<br />
<br />
<br />
Not the ones who fall the ones who stand<br />
Oh I could never be that man<br />
<br />
<br />
I still remember that time in my life<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
When I was sinking so low<br />
You stayed with me all through the night<br />
<br />
<br />
Sang me some songs you know<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Now as time goes on <br />
<br />
I wonder what went wrong<br />
<br />
Didn't I fit into your little plan<br />
<br />
Couldn't I be the one<br />
You lay your troubles on <br />
<br />
Walk you to the edge and hold your hand<br />
<br />
<br />
Pick you like a pearl from the sand<br />
<br />
I'll open every doorway that I can<br />
Oh I could never be that man
