It just occurred to me

I must be blind

Why do I try so hard to keep my cool

When I'm about to lose my mind

There was a vision

Flashing by

Of a summers' day I spent with you

Of a child who never learnt how to cry

When those around me

Fall in despair

I call upon my common sense

'cause someone has to care

A sudden decision

I can't explain

Though I've often tried to change the rules

The game remains the same

For love

I've played the part so many times

It fits me like a glove

But I'm the victim

In the bitter end

I know you need me to be strong

L just don't know how much longer I can pretend

You always need me to be

A good man in a storm

It sometimes scares me

The further we go

Just how much we understand

And just how much we know

So whatever happened

In our hearts

While making perfect sense of life

We still remain so far apart

You always want me to be

A good man in a storm

Trying to fit the social norm

And be a good man in a storm

Trying hard since I was born

To be a good man in a storm
