Darlin' - Mike Pinto

Oh, lately I’m a man on the move

I’m a young soul with something to prove

At that age now, to find something real

Using planes, trains, and automobiles

It’s a long way 'cross the U.S.A

But this day is mine for the takin'

Breakin' the laws, 'cause they’re all so obsurd

I smoke the best herb, the more I travel Westwards

All the folks, they all got different handshakes

On my way through landslides and earthquakes

Funny how you learn the different rules of a new place

Funny how your life can fit inside of a suitcase

All I need is just a round of applaus

To remind me why I left my life behind me

I’m makin' money for the rhymes I write

And now the hunnies wanna' hold me tight

But darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)

Darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of

She’s looking for a knight in shining armor

A charmer, to guard from those who’d harm her

I ain’t the one who’s gonna' deal with the hassle

Ain’t the type of knight who spends his time in the castle

Call me selfhish, ha, you may be true

But I been lookin' out for something new

'Cause the same bar, in the same part of town

Drinkin' over and over again could bring a man down (oh)

I’ve been traveling from state to state

Still looking for people who can relate

In hot persuit of a girl to ease my tension

Pretty little something cravin' more than attention

Darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)

Darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of

Nothing’s ever gonna' stand in my way

The highway is all that provides me

With a thought that there is something waiting

Strong enough to keep a heart from aching

If Love is in the air that I ain’t breathing

Life is short, and I’m in search of meanin'

The race is won, and it is slow and steady

Enough already, Hell I’m far from good and ready

We could get together for a one night stand

'Cause girl I can love you better than any man could

One thing for sure, you know I gotta' leave town

Well, we could mess around, we could mess around

Darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)

Darlin', can’t you see, can’t you see?

I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no)
