The Love Of a Man

I didn't wanna hurt myself
I didn't wanna hurt anyone else
I just wanted the love of a man
And that's where my trouble began

I didn't wanna be in pain
I didn't wanna throw it away
I didn't wanna feel so insane
I didn't want things to end up this way

I just wanted him to hold my hand
I just wanted to be in his plans
I just wanted him to understand
I just wanted the love of a man
I just wanted the love of a man

I didn't think it all through
I just wanted to feel close to you
I was so numb to the core
I just wanted to open the door

I didn't mean to give so much away
I didn't wanna feel this change
I didn't wanna be in this place
I didn't want things to end up this way

I just wanted him to hold my hand
I just wanted to be in his plans
I just wanted him to understand
I just wanted the love of a man

I just wanted to feel something
I didn't wanted to burn our sting
I thought I could drink from this cup
But the poison is tearing me up
Is tearing me up

I just wanted him to hold my hand
I just wanted to be in his plans
I just wanted him to understand
I just wanted the love of a man

I didn't wanna hate myself
I didn't wanna hate anyone else
I didn't wanna throw so much way
I just wanted the love of a man
I just wanted the love of a man
