I realize how difficult it is
For you to take me as I am
And knowing that you're not the first
To love me makes the difference
In a man
But I feel no shame or guilty conscience
Knowing the way my morals stand
But my one big mistake in life
Is letting down my strength
Just to satisfy the weakness in a man
So here I am
Now you're all of my yesterdays
Just take my hand
If you can see yourself with me
I know my past must hurt you
But baby, I do the best I can
To live with things I did before
Without a wedding ring
Upon my hand
Oh, you know it seems so funny
That the story should end as it began
But my one big mistake in life
Was letting down my strength
Just to satisfy the weakness in a man
So here I am
Now you're all of my yesterdays
Just take my hand
If you can see yourself with me
I know my past must hurt you
But baby, I do the best I can
To live with things I did before
Without a wedding ring
Upon my hand
Oh, you know it seems so funny
That the story should end as it began
But my one big mistake in life
Was letting down my strength
Just to satisfy the weakness in a man
