God,  I'm down here on my knees
 Cause it's the last  place left to fall
Beggin'  for another chance, if there's any  chance at alli.
That  you might still be listenin' lovin'  and forgivin' guys like me
I've  spent my whole life gettin' it  all wrong
And  I sure could use your help cause  from now on
 I wanna be a good  man a 'do like I  should' man
 I wanna be the kind  of man the mirror likes to see
 I wanna be a strong  man and admit that I was wrong,  man
 God I'm asking you  to come change me
 To the man I wanna be
There's  anyway for her and me to make  another start
 Could you see  what you could do to put some love  back in her heart
 Cuz' it going  to take a miracle after all  I've done to really make her  see
 That I wanna be a stay  man, I wanna be a great  man
 I wanna be the kind  of man that she sees in her dreams
 God, I wanna be your  man, and I wanna be her  man
 God, I only hope  she still believes  in the man I wanna  be
 Well, I know  this late at night  that talk is cheap
Lord,  don't  give up on me
 
 I wanna be a givin'  man, I wanna really start  livin'  man
 God,  I'm asking you to come change  me
 To the man I wanna be
