Lyrics
We been together since the start,
We promised that we'd never part.
It's hard to keep on keeping on
When all my confidence is gone.
I'm just a man, I can't say why You never see me cry.
You think I'm strong, I'm telling you you're wrong -
I need you by my side, I need you by my side cause...
I'm just a man, I can't stand On my own.
Take my hand, Understand, Don't leave me alone.
I'm just a man, I can't stand On my own.
Take my hand, Understand, Don't leave me alone.
I'm just a man, I can't say why You never see me cry.
You think I'm strong, I'm telling you you're wrong -
I need you by my side, I need you by my side cause...
I know you're there, I'm hoping that you care,
But how I'm wrong - You're the one,
You're the one who is strong, for...
I'm just a man, I can't say why You never see me cry.
You think I'm strong, I'm telling you you're wrong -
I need you by my side, I need you by my side cause...
I'm just a man.
