Too Much for a Man Who's Not Enough

(Verse 1)

You thought it was you, that you’d lost your way,

But darling, it’s him, who couldn’t stay.

He wanted a shadow, a whisper, a sigh,

But girl, you’re a fire, you were born to fly.

(Pre-Chorus)

He twisted the story, made you feel small,

But love, don’t you dare, let him build that wall.

You’re not too strong, you’re a force of your own,

He chose the easy road, but you’ve always grown.

(Chorus)

You weren’t too much for the love that you sought,

You were just too much for a man who’s not.

He wanted a puppet, someone to control,

But you’re a wild river, a powerful soul.

So stand tall, girl, let your spirit rise,

The right one will see you, and open his eyes.

(Verse 2)

He didn’t want challenge, he needed a game,

Someone to tolerate the weight of his shame.

But you held the mirror, reflected his flaws,

Now he’s running scared, ‘cause you broke down those walls.

(Pre-Chorus)

You were never hard to love, just hard to ignore,

With standards that shine, you’re worth so much more.

Don’t dim your light for a heart that won’t grow,

Your worth is a treasure, let the whole world know.

(Chorus)

You weren’t too much for the love that you sought,

You were just too much for a man who’s not.

He wanted a puppet, someone to control,

But you’re a wild river, a powerful soul.

So stand tall, girl, let your spirit rise,

The right one will see you, and open his eyes.

(Bridge)

One day you’ll find him, your equal, your friend,

No need to shrink back, this love won’t pretend.

He’ll cherish your strength, won’t ask you to fade,

Together you’ll blossom, no more masquerade.

(Chorus)

You weren’t too much for the love that you sought,

You were just too much for a man who’s not.

He wanted a puppet, someone to control,

But you’re a wild river, a powerful soul.

So stand tall, girl, let your spirit rise,

The right one will see you, and open his eyes.

(Outro)

So here’s to the journey, the lessons you’ve learned,

To the love you deserve, for which you’ve yearned.

You’re not hard to love; you’re a beautiful spark,

And one day you’ll find it, the light in the dark.
