I've been a father to you all In spite of what you've heard and for the most part, I've been a perfect stranger too In spite of what you've heard You've made me painfully aware Of what you think of me And for the most part, I'm starting to believe it's true I put my faith in you That's why I'm singing Sorry songs I sing To amuse myself I need to hear your voice Carry all my weight I've been a lover to the ones You'd never realize And for the most part, I've been a liar all my life In spite of what you've heard A centimeter of a man I measure up to be And for the most part, I might be lonely all my life I'm lying in the bed I've made Lying in the bed I've made Sorry songs I sing To amuse myself I need to hear your voice Carry all my weight I hope it's not too late, You're making a mistake
