The Man Ive Been Looking For
I woke up an hour early, put on my runnin' shoesOh man, it's been a while, a half a mile's all I could doThen I pulled a couple weeds out of the cracksIn the sidewalk to my front doorPoured out the coffee pot, stuck it underneath the cabinetDrank a tall cool glass of water, gonna break that caffiene habitAnd quit steppin' over all my winter clothesAnd pick em' up off the floorStop by bobby hendons, pay him back that twenty bucksIt's just a little thing, it may not seem like much
ChorusBut hey, it's a start, a speck of light in the darkA place where smilin' don't come so hard any moreMy visions growin' clearer, I see a face that's so familiarYeah, this mornin' in the mirror by the doorI caught a glance of the man I've been lookin' for
A couple weeks ago I met a nice girl at my churchShe reminded me of you, so sweet and down to earthWell I finally mustered up a little nerve, and asked her for her numberI met her at the deli on her lunch break yesterdayWe both went dutch, so I guess it's not a dateChorus
BridgeI remember when the doctor said you didn't have too longYou made me promise I'd move onBut it's puttin' my faith to the test, everyday I do my bestGirl, I know they're only baby steps
