When you were by my side



I would not be satisfied



I thought the grass was greener over the hill



You gave me your heart



But I held back a part



saying "Maybe" when I should have said "I will"







Now I must admit



that I could not commit



I thought Id always be your Mister Right



And when you said "Were through"



I said "Therell be somebody new"



and let you walk away without a fight







(Leaving me)



Half the man and twice the fool I was



Had a master-plan believed I was the boss



Now Im at the hard knock school



cause I broke the golden rule



Now Im half the man and twice the fool I was







A man can spend his days



in a melancholic haze



of yesterdays and how-things-used-to-be



Hindsights never wrong



Now I know where I belong



Theres no woman in this world but you for me







Time and time again



there were warnings from my friends



They said "Youll lose her if you carry on this way"



But I was Mr Know-It-All



riding for a fall



When you walked out the blues walked in to stay







(Finding me)



Half the man



Look at this three time loser



Now that youre gone



I lost my heart, I lost your love



I lost the will to carry on



Half the man ..
