I know you wish, that I could be
More than any other man you've ever known
The way you look at me, sometimes, makes me feel
What I'm really worth, I've never shown

But I think there's so much more to life, than simply winning things
So you can stand a step above your friends
'Cause all the things a hundred dollars of work a week might buy
Will only wet your appetite, not satisfy you

And I'm just a man
Born of a woman like you
I'm just a man
Who can't be blind to the things I find, in this world

So let me try to find a way that I can be
Worth the time and space I fill
Though I lose the common race while chasing dreams
I need to have you, standing by me still

For I'm just a man
Born of a woman like you
I'm just a man
Who needs your love
And to know that you're proud of the kind of man I am inside me

I'm just a man
Who needs your love
And to know that you're proud of the kind of man I am inside me
'Cause all I am is a man, born of a woman like you
All I am is a man, born of a woman like you
All I am is a man, born of a woman like you
