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
