Man Enough To Say

Verse 1

I been runnin’ from the truth,

Hidin’ out behind a bottle or two,

Tellin’ stories that weren’t fair,

Talkin’ bad like you weren’t there.

Now I see the mess I made,

Words cut deeper than a blade,

You deserved better, girl,

Than a boy who tore up your world.

Chorus

So I’m standin’ here tonight,

Tryin’ to make a wrong thing right,

I was blind but now I see,

What my pride done stole from me.

If it takes the rest of my days,

To own my faults and change my ways,

I’ll be man enough to say,

I’m sorry.

Verse 2

I lied when I should’ve been true,

Threw shadows over the best of you.

Guess I thought I’d come out strong,

But all I did was prove me wrong.

You gave your heart, I gave you pain,

Now I can’t outrun the shame,

Wishin’ I could take it back,

But all I got is this guitar track.

Chorus

So I’m standin’ here tonight,

Tryin’ to make a wrong thing right,

I was blind but now I see,

What my pride done stole from me.

If it takes the rest of my days,

To own my faults and change my ways,

I’ll be man enough to say,

I’m sorry.

Bridge

This ain’t no late-night drunk call,

Ain’t no write-your-name-on-the-barroom-wall,

This is me, broken and real,

Sayin’ things I should’ve said,

When I had the chance to heal.

Chorus

So I’m standin’ here tonight,

Tryin’ to make a wrong thing right,

I was blind but now I see,

What my pride done stole from me.

If it takes the rest of my days,

To own my faults and change my ways,

I’ll be man enough to say,

I’m sorry.

Outro

Yeah, I’ll be man enough to say…

I’m sorry.
