On “Just A Man”, Alex Clare picks up the acoustic guitar to ask for some more forgiveness, by saying that he is only human, and doing his best for his partner. The song features instruments like a cello, violins and drums, with Martin Slattery and Antony Genn back on production.
See, I'm just a man
I got these troubles, I'm making plans
Know there's really nothing but you
Keeps me awake and I
Think of another way we can fuss and fight
There must be somewhere I can get through
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
There's a war going on in my heart
I got a battle kicking off in my heart
There's a war going on in my heart
No, there's really nothing if I know I can't have you
Well, could I be forgiven for the things I put you through?
See, I'm just a man trying to understand what I'll do, I do to you
Lying in an empty bed
All my mistakes running around my head
There's nothing I can honestly say
Don't think before I speak
My mind is strong but my heart is weak
I'm not the only one who's made this way
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
I have not slept for days
No, there's really nothing if I know I can't have you
Well, could I be forgiven for the things I put you through?
See, I'm just a man trying to understand what I'll do
See, I'm just a man trying to understand what I'll do, do to you
There's a war going on in my heart
I got a battle kicking off in my heart
There's a war going on in my heart
I got a battle kicking off in my heart
There's a war going on in my heart
I got a battle kicking off in my heart
There's a war going on in my heart
I got a war going on
No, there's really nothing if I know I can't have you
Well, could I be forgiven for the things I put you through?
See, I'm just a man trying to understand what I'll do
See, I'm just a man trying to understand what I'll do, do to you
Do to you
