just a man

oh my love , i say good bye
it's the hardest word i've ever said
but that's the fact now
you don't need me
you need an angel , a hero , a knight
that's not me ..i'm a man

when i saw you i thought i've seen you before
yeah , it was in my dreams you were the girl of my dreams
you were the most beautiful girl in this world
you were a queen
i didn't believe my ears when you said let's dance
you said i love you
you loved me as the the hero you thought i was
i'm not the angel of your dreams
i'm not the hero of your life
i'm not the knight of your nights
i'm just a man

you were always looking for someone
when you saw me you thought i was that one
but when you saw me as i am
you said i'm not the man of your life
i'm cool ... you need it bright
i'm weak ... you need it strong
i'm a man you need an angel
i'm not the angel of your dreams
i'm not the hero of your life
i'm not the knight of your nights
i'm just a man

i'm a looser as you see
i'm a weak as you said
can't you see i'm a man
i'm just a man
you're a queen you don't need a man
you need a hero , an angel , a knight
you don't need me
that's life you need a story
