It's like I've been through all that I can take
Every mistake that I could make
But it's all becoming clear as daylight now
I've broken every heart that I could break
Every excuse that I could fake
But I know I'm going all but nowhere
Now,
I can't imagine how
It came to make sense to me
How,
I've found a someone now
Who found the best in me
And all I thought I could be
Was not much more than you see
Now, the torn and tattered
Bruised and battered me
In such a life that I lead
She's few and so far between
The night I met her made it better
Made a better me
It's like her past left all but empty space
Every lament that she could face
But it's nothing more than she can handle now
And never quite sure how her family ties
Severed and torn apart with lies
Would come together, but this weather's calming
Now,
I can't imagine how
It came to make sense to me
How,
I've found a someone now
Who found the best in me
And all I thought I could be
Was not much more than you see
Now, the torn and tattered
Bruised and battered me
In such a life that I lead
She's few and so far between
The night I met her made it better
Made a better me
God gave a thousand second chances to a guy like me
Sometimes it takes a thousand tries
She's got a peace that passes understanding in her heart
And for the first time she has hope for a new start
Now,
I can't imagine how
It makes sense to me
How,
I've found a someone now
Who found the best in
And all I thought I could be
Was not much more than you see
Now, the torn and tattered
Bruised and battered me
In such a life that I lead
She's few and so far between
The night I met her made it better
Made a better me
And all I thought I could be
Was not much more than you see
Now, the torn and tattered
Bruised and battered me
In such a life that I lead
She's few and so far between
The night I met her made it better
Made a better me
