Unwanted Man

Like an old worn-out corduroy coat

Down at the lost and found

I meant nothin' to no one

'Til you picked me up off the ground

Like a stray dog off of the streets

I was shivering to the bone

You gave me shelter from the cold freezin' rain

Inside the comforts of your home

And you'll find behind my crooked smile

Hiding beneath the red wine on my breath

Lies the fear of losin' you, God only knows

How just the thought scares my heart half to death

'Cause when push comes to shove, only your love

Loves me for what I'm not and what I am

And for once in my life, I don't feel like

An unwanted man

I was a lone rolling stone

Headed south-bound on a slick downhill slide

Until you reached out, softly took my calloused hands

I was never satisfied

You'll find behind my crooked smile

Hiding beneath the red wine on my breath

Lies the fear of losin' you, God only knows

How just the thought scares my heart half to death

'Cause when push comes to shove, only your love

Loves me for what I'm not and what I am

And for once in my life, I don't feel like

An unwanted man

♪

And though I see my name shine up on that marquee sign

You know it's nothin' but another one-night stand

'Cause when they turn off those lights, here come those lonely nights

No one but you can understand this unwanted man

You'll find behind my crooked smile

Hiding beneath the red wine on my breath

Lies the fear of losin' you, God only knows

How just the thought scares my heart half to death

'Cause when push comes to shove, only your love

Loves me for what I'm not and what I am

And for once in my life, I don't feel like

An unwanted man

Girl, for once in my life

I don't feel like an unwanted man
