I felt small enough to drown in each teardrop But big enough to admit I was wrong Now I'm trying hard to be the man I oughta be But I came so close to living alone. I didn't know just how much they meant to me I guess sometimes a man must be shown When I think of what I done a chill goes through me I came so close to living alone. I felt small enough to drown in each teardrop But big enough to admit I was wrong Now I'm trying hard to be the man I oughta be But I came so close to living alone...
