Being the Man of My Dreams

Being The Man Of My Dreams

(Chris Gates)
Last week everything it seemed do-able

Last week everything seemed just fine

Then the world rolled around one time too many

And now I’m running to keep time
Well, God don’t give you more’n you can handle

Least that’s what I’ve heard’em all say

Well I wish he didn’t | have so much faith in me

Wish there were some other way
Things keep on getting better

And bigger and cooler it seems

But some days I ain’t sure I can handle

Being The Man Of My Dreams
Well my buddy he once asked the question

“What d'you do when all your dreams have come true?”

At the time it seemed like a stupid notion

Wish that I’d thought it through
It got worse before it got better,

now the future’s so bright I can’t see

Just how the hell am I gonna pull off
Being the man I always wanted to be
('n') Things keep on getting better

And bigger and cooler it seems

But some days I ain’t sure I can handle

Being The Man Of My Dreams
Well sometimes things get overwhelming

Dreams are born and hopes die with such speed
And joy and pain curling right up together

Sucking the life outta of me
I'm Puttin' one foot in front of the other

Doing just what I can do

And with God, and you people, and a little on my own

I just might make it through
And things keep on getting better

And bigger and cooler it seems

But some days I ain’t sure I can handle
