In the morning when she wakes
light of dawn come kiss her face
sunshine give her a warm embrace
wind come blow her tears away

Tell her love has felt the need to leave her
tell her love has felt the need to free her
I could never be what she wants of me

Diamond rings and wedding plans
children laughing and holding hands
she deserves a kind man
but my life is like sinking sand

Tell her love has felt the need to leave her
tell her love has felt the need to free her
I could never be what she wants of me

I could never be what she wants of me
I could never be what she wants of me

Tell her love has felt the need to leave her
tell her love has felt the need to free her
I could never be what she wants of me
I could never be what she wants of me

I was passing by didn't want to make her cry
Once she finds a happy home
I think its best that I move on
I could never be what she wants of me hey
