And all the sky is turning blue
If i could only get past you
Then i would know what we've got
Maybe see where we live
If i could only rearrange
Make soldier plans, and try to change
Then i might feel like your hero
Coming home from war
And i might understand
How i ended up a man

Darling please forgive me
I was sitting on the fence
I was slowly going out of my head
I did not hear a word that you said
I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed

If i could take your blows, if i could get pass go,
If i could find a way of fixing all the things that i broke
Then i would, if i could
And i might understand how i ended up a man
And i might understand how i ended up a man

But the truth is hard to find
When it's playing tricks with your mind
Darling please forgive me
I was hanging with my friends
I was slowly getting out of my head
I did not hear a word that you said

I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed
I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed
