The Man I Want to Be - Nick Nolan

Could you wait a year or two

Overlook the things I do

Try to understand a much too simple man

So please hold on another day

Would you light and show the way

Hold fast patiently as I revise my plan

You’re my shining light

In the dark of night

Give me strength to fight myself

When hope is fading

From endless waiting

Have faith someday you will see

The man I want to be

Give me your thoughts, give me your words

Give me a sign you’re not deterred

The load is all on me but I can soldier on

Under a still and moonlit sky

The winter wind is whipping by

And thoughts of you will carry me until the dawn

You’re my shining light

In the dark of night

Give me strength to fight myself

When hope is fading

From endless waiting

Have faith someday you will see

The man I want to be
