It just occured to me I must be blind

Why do I try so hard to keep my cool

When I'm about to lose my mind

There was a vision flashing by

Of a summer's day I spent with you

Of a child who never learned how to cry



When those around me fall in despair

I call upon my common sense

'cause someone has to care

A sudden decision I can't explain

Though I've often tried to change the rules

The game remains the same for love

I've played the part so many times

It fits me like a glove

But I am a victim in the bitter end

I know you need me to be strong

I just don't know how much longer I can pretend



You always need to be a good man in a storm



It sometimes scares me, the further we go

Just how much we understand and just how much we know

So whatever happened in our hearts

While making the perfect sense of life

We still remain so far apart



You always want me to be a good man in a storm



Trying to fit the social norm, and be a good man in a storm

Trying hard since I was born to be a good man in a storm
