The Man She Needs

I've got a train in the morning
I've got a pain in my soul
And she's got no sign or warning
That I am ready to go

And I've got a long list of reasons
Why I probably should stay
Like all those late summer evenings
And all the love that she gave

But then the platform's in view
We're in the hotel room
And I hold her
And she knows it's over

And hearts will break
In full tonight
And tears will stain
Her bloodshot eyes
As she will learn
Unwillingly
That I'm not half
The man she needs

I've got a tour in October
I've got a show right by her place
I've got somethings I wish I told her
But I know I should stay away

So I cry an ocean or two
There in my hotel room
Try to hold on
Don't make that phone call

And hearts will break
In full tonight
And tears will stain
Her bloodshot eyes
As she will learn
Unwillingly
That I'm not half
The man she needs

I finally got the nerve to reach out
Thought I would give it one more try
She sends back a message and it reads out
You broke me one too many times

And hearts will break
In full tonight
And tears will stain
My bloodshot eyes
As I look in the mirror and see
That I'm not half the man she needs
The man she needs
