What A Man Wants - Bernard Fanning

No one was surprised when you went down

You’d put in so much time beating a path to heaven’s door

And everybody froze when you disappeared

The sum of all the fears they’d held for you so long

What a man wants is seldom what he needs

What a man can picture rarely turns out to be real

What a man wants

What a man wants

I am a creature of habit

Forever sighing for a change

All my life I gave attention

To the things I’d never change

What a man wants is seldom what he needs

For the man who sets off without knowing where it leads

What a man wants

What a man wants

Everyone decided to look away from the tombstones in your eyes

You’d go blind before you’d take some good advice

You wouldn’t see it any other way

You knew all the risk and the price

What a man wants is seldom what he needs

For the man with anchor seeking to his dream

What a man wants

What a man wants is seldom what he needs

What a man can picture rarely turns out to be real

What a man wants

What a man wants

What a man wants is seldom what he needs

What a man wants

What a man wants

What a man wants
