Intro
Chorus
How can I be you, I could have been
I'd like to start over again
Angels did I fail you with my fall
What are we but the cause of it all
Verse
It's been a long time
Of getting out of myself
Now that I'm here I find
That what gives you life
Is all you are
It's you have
Hey ya
Hey ya
Chorus
How can I get just one more chance
I see you in pain and I wish I had
The ability to be your man
They once told me that time would come to pass
Verse
Now I know
To be careful
What I don't believe
Cause that fate keeps on going
Right out of my reach
What's good for you is good for me too
Do you hear I'm here for you now
I am here for you now

The ability to be your man
They once told me that time would come to pass
