Thought I knew a thing or two about love
But I didn't know enough
I was sure I thought I knew who I was
But I wasn't sure enough
Thought I was the answer to the problems
We had for so long
Truth is my intentions didn't matter
When I loved you wrong
Used to think I was doing something
Because I was better than the past
Examples that I had in my life
Thinking I was up to the task
But the bar was set so low
That anything seemed good
Even though it was less than
Doing the best that I could
No praise or accolades for doing what you're supposed to do
Doing more than the minimum sure ain't the golden rule
Take sacrifice and let the show that your love is true
When trouble comes your way you will always make it through
Regardless of what you did or didn't see in your life
You have to learn to be a man if you want to have a wife
And a family with kids you have to know how to guide
Stumbling along the way just take it all in stride
Thought I knew a thing or two about love
But I didn't know enough
I was sure I thought I knew who I was
But I wasn't sure enough
Thought I was to answer to the problems
We had for so long
Truth is my intentions didn't matter
When I loved you wrong
A man with pride can be foolish
Make you never want to change
Even when the result of bad choices
Are staring you in the face
You make a ton of excuses
And refuse to take the blame
Make the same mistakes over and over
The definition of insane
No praise or accolades for doing what you're supposed to do
Doing more than the minimum sure ain't the golden rule
Take sacrifice and let the show that your love is true
When trouble comes your way you will always make it through
Regardless of what you did or didn't see in your life
You have to learn to be a man if you want to have a wife
And a family with kids you have to know how to guide
Stumbling along the way just take it all in stride
Thought I knew a thing or two about love
But I didn't know enough
I was sure I thought I knew who I was
But I wasn't sure enough
Thought I was to answer to the problems
We had for so long
Truth is my intentions didn't matter
When I loved you wrong
No praise or accolades for doing what you're supposed to do
Doing more than the minimums sure ain't the golden rule
Take sacrifice and let the show that your love is true
When trouble comes your way you will always make it through
Regardless of what you did or didn't see in your life
You have to learn to be a man if you want to have a wife
And a family with kids you have to know how to guide
