She Mends Me
Marc Anthony · Mended
Look at me I'm not the man I used to be
When she smiles at me
I live the light I used to see
There she goes and i know
On my own
I'm not whole
Can't believe
She can't see
That she's taken the best part of me
[Chorus:]
I'm half a man with half a heart
With naothing left to tear apart
Half of me is walking 'round
The other half is on the ground
She mends me
What's to see I had it all in front of me
It's all on me
All in the name of vanity
There she goes and I know
On my own
I'm not whole
Can't believe
She can't see
That she's taken the best part of me
[Repeat Chorus]
Tell me where I am
nothing else can replace her
how do i go on the way I am
[Repeat Chorus]
When she smiles at me
I live the light I used to see
There she goes and i know
On my own
I'm not whole
Can't believe
She can't see
That she's taken the best part of me
[Chorus:]
I'm half a man with half a heart
With naothing left to tear apart
Half of me is walking 'round
The other half is on the ground
She mends me
What's to see I had it all in front of me
It's all on me
All in the name of vanity
There she goes and I know
On my own
I'm not whole
Can't believe
She can't see
That she's taken the best part of me
[Repeat Chorus]
Tell me where I am
nothing else can replace her
how do i go on the way I am
[Repeat Chorus]
