Lyrics
RIGHT OUTTA SCHOOL, I WAS OFF TO WAR. SHE SAID OUR LOVE WAS WORTH WAITING FOR. BUT I DIDNT COME BACK AFTER MY TOUR. THOUGHT I WANTED MORE THAN THE GIRL NEXT DOOR. I PLAYED THE GAMEALWAYS ENDED THE SAME JUS DIDNT FEEL RIGHT WHEN MORNIN CAME. GUARDED MY FREEDOM, BUT KNEW ID BEEN CAUGHT. THAT GIRL NEXT DOOR HAD A HOLD ON MY HEART. CHORUS: IVE DONE IT WRONG FOR WAY TOO LONG. NOW I KNOW WHERE I BELONG. IM TIRED OF ALL THE ONE-NIGHT-STANDS. I WANT THE CHANCE TO BE HER MAN. I CALLED HER UPSAID, IM COMIN HOME. HEARD THE SILENCE ON THE END OF THE PHONE. KNEW SHE WAS HURT, AND I WAS TO BLAME; TOOK A DEEP BREATH AS I TRIED TO EXPLAIN. CHORUS: IVE DONE IT WRONG FOR WAY TOO LONG. NOW I KNOW WHERE I BELONG. I HURT YOU ONCE BUT WONT AGAIN. I WANT THE CHANCE TO BE YOUR MAN. BRIDGE: I STOOD AT HER DOOR AT A QUARTER TO EIGHT. WOULD SHE SAY OUR LOVE WAS WORTH THE WAIT? I SEARCHED THE WORLD FOR SOMETHIN MORE; CAME FULL CIRCLE TO THE GIRL NEXT DOOR. CHORUS: THE PAST IS PASTCANT MAKE IT RIGHT. ILL HOLD HER IN MY ARMS TONIGHT AND PRAY SHE SEES JUS WHO I AM. I WANT THE CHANCE TO BE HER MAN. IVE DONE IT WRONG FOR WAY TOO LONG. NOW I KNOW WHERE I BELONG. ILL OFFER HER THIS WEDDING BAND. I WANT THE CHANCE TO BE HER MAN.
