lyrics

I ain’t the man you thought I was
‘cause baby, your potential
is the only thing ‘bout you I loved
I know there’s things we’ll never say
but oh, how I wish there’d been another way

I ain’t the boy you used to know
‘cause mama, I’ve seen a thousand worlds
since I first left home
I could change the whole damn world, baby
Oh, if I could just get outta my way

Chorus:
Oh, mama would you come around?
Oh, ‘cause I can’t pick myself up off the ground
Yeah, baby would you let me in?
Oh, ‘cause death ain’t big enough to be the end
Oh, and life ain’t nothing but a dream
Nothing but a dream
