I'm Only A Man cover
08. What Makes A Man A Man
Album: I'm Only A Man
Artist: Emery
         
 

Take a look and see for yourself what makes a man
a man, and I will step back to the life I left.
Maybe you won’t forget who I am.

Wake up in the middle of the night,
just don’t believe everything’s all right when these
thoughts are running around your head.
And it’s late, so you don’t really want to say goodbye,
so you just head down the stairs that lead you out.
The sound of silence is as loud as a gunshot.
“Forgive me” were the only words they read
on the note you left.

Singing, oh… can’t find any way out.

I wish I could live where the sea meets the land.
The ocean and I would be the best of friends.
I’d make her my own. I would float in her waves.
She would sing me to sleep as she carries me away.
Won’t you carry me away?
Oh, please, carry me away.
Ocean, carry me away. You’re the better half.

Singing, oh… can’t find any way out.

(I don’t really want to sing anymore. There’s got to
be something I could live for, so just who me now.
Everyday is just another regret. It’s time for me to
give it a rest and it’s over now.)
