Oh, it's a long and broken road,
But there's a light at the end of the tunnel, don't lose your hope.

Every day I realize a little bit more,
I'm not what you need, baby boy.
I think you know it too, but it don't matter to you,
'Cause I'm everything in your dreams.
But how can you be satisfied just going along for the ride,
Sitting in the passenger seat?
I understand that you're a man in love, but don't play yourself-
Thinking I'll give you what you need.

Oh, it's a long and broken road,
But there's a light at the end of the tunnel, don't lose your hope.
And, oh, there's an answer to your prayers,
'Cause there's a damn good woman waiting for you
Somewhere out there.

You'll argue with me till you can't argue anymore
That you are the perfect man for me.
But that's the very first mistake you're making,
This wearing your heart out there on your sleeve.
If someone doesn't love you, you can't force it,
For fear of resentment, it's never gonna be contentment.
Baby, give it up and put your trust in my judgement.
Believe me when I say.

I know, it's a long and broken road,
But there's a light at the end of the tunnel, don't lose your hope.
And, oh, there's an answer to your prayers,
'Cause there's a damn good woman waiting for you
Somewhere out there.

One of these days-
It's just gonna happen.
And I know it's hard to believe me right now.
But it will.
She's gonna come and change your life-
And you'll never think twice...

About this long and broken road,
'Cause she's the light at the end of the tunnel, don't lose your hope.
And, oh, she's the answer to your prayers,
Yeah, she's the damn good woman
Who's been waiting for you out there.

She's the damn good woman gonna love you better
Than I ever could or would and, baby, she's just waiting for you out there.
