Don't Tell Her I'm Not - Steve Wariner

IT’S JUST ME AND THE STREET LIGHTS

A HALF A MILE FROM HOME

THERE’S A WOMAN WAITIN' THERE THAT I LOVE SO MUCH

I CAN’T STAND BEIN' GONE

AND I’VE BEEN AFRAID MORE TIMES THAN I CAN COUNT

THAT I’LL MESS UP AND DO A STUPID THING

AND SOMEHOW LET HER DOWN

CAUSE SHE LOVES ME

AND I DON’T' KNOW WHY SHE DOES

BUT SHE LOVES ME

LORD I HOPE THAT I’M ENOUGH

DON’T LET HER SEE ME AS ANY LESS OF A MAN

THAN THE ONE SHE THINKS I AM

AND DON’T LET HER FIND OUT THAT I’M REALLY NOT SO STRONG

I’M TRYIN' TO LOVE HER WITH ALL I’VE GOT

SHE THINKS I’M A HERO DON’T TELL HER I’M NOT

YEAH I SAID SOME THINGS

I WISH I’D NEVER SAID

NOW I’M DRIVING AROUND THINKIN' OUT LOUD

TRYIN' TO GET IT OFF MY CHEST

I COULDN’T STAND TO SEE THOSE TEARS

FALLIN' DOWN HER PRETTY FACE

AND KNOWIN' IT’S BECAUSE OF ME

MAKES ME FEEL SO ASHAMED

CAUSE SHE LOVES ME

OH AND I CAN’T FIGURE OUT

WHY SHE LOVES ME

WHAT’S SHE THINKIN' OF ME NOW

DON’T LET HER SEE ME AS ANY LESS OF A MAN

THAN THE ONE SHE THINKS I AM

DON’T LET HER FIND OUT THAT I’M REALLY NOT SO STRONG

I’M TRYIN' TO LOVE HER WITH ALL I’VE GOT

SHE THINKS I’M A HERO DON’T TELL HER I’M NOT
