Staring outside my kitchen door The smell of coffee, that feeling of morning The sound of your voice, soft in my ear I've done nothing that deserves being here I try not to imagine I try not to regret I've been thinking of you Near enough to forget But the painful sound of the past plays in the back of my mind And I have to admit, I still listen sometimes What if I can't change who I was What if I can't give you real love Then you look my way and I just say So what if I can't So what if I can't So what if I can't And what if I can Now you know where I've come from and I know you don't care Its in the back of my mind but I can't get back there And though the past withers away when you look in my eyes Baby tell me the truth do you see it sometimes What if I can't change who I was What if I can't give you real love Then you look my way and I just say So what if I can't So what if I can't So what if I can't And what if I can And I know I'm gonna fall short I’m gonna get back up, and fall some more But I will fall on your love and I will get back up You will lift me up What if I can't change who I was What if I can't give you real love Then you look my way and I just say So what if I can't So what if I can't So what if I can't And what if I can The sound of your voice, soft in my ear I've done nothing that deserves being here
