Not The Man Lyrics

There are so many questions,

there are so many doubts -

this is auto-suggestion

your spirit is giving out.

If I offered my reasons

would you give me a break?

Now it's all open season,

no sense of quit and take.

You see I'm not the man I was....

But of I'm not the man

that you took me to be

do I fade from your dreams,

disappear from your memory?

Look at me:

if I'm not the man I was

then who was he?

There can be no returning

to the scene of the crime...

For perfection you're yearning:

some romance, some foreign chime!Hammill Peter - Not The Man - http://motolyrics.com/hammill-peter/not-the-man-lyrics.html

Is the memory explicit

under strict rule of thumb?

It was always implicit,

this character I've become.

But if I'm not the man

that you took me to be

do I fade from your dreams,

disappear from your memory?

I remember it well,

I can guess what went wrong...

you believe all these words

in the popular songs...

but if I'm not the man

that you took me to be,

did I walk in your dreams?

I've no idea who that person could be.

Look at me:

if I'm not the man I was

then who is he
