Now I Am

I guess I finally grew up when my wife left me
Too bad that she couldn't hang around to see
I used to walk beside her and I loved her so
And then I had to love enough to let her go

'Cause I'm a man
Yes I am
Now I am

I'm a man
I'm a man
Now I am
Now I am

I guess she had to put up with a lot of me
And I guess I was too afraid to try and see
That nothing that I ever did could set her free
She had to walk and so I had to let her be

'Cause I'm a man
Yes I am
Now I am

I'm a man
I'm a man
Now I am
Now I am, yeah

I stood against the fire and then I walked on through
It singed my face and left my body black and bluе
It made me strong enough that I could facе myself
And I can place the memories back on the shelf

'Cause I'm a man
Yes I am
Now I am

I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
I'm a man
Now I am
Now I am, yeah
