Im not the kind of guy
That would usually catch her eye
On any given day or street
Shed simply pass me byI may be nothing like the man
She imagined in her dream
I know Im not the kind
Youd see up on a screenBut Ive got something better
Than a star on some old sidewalk
Ill sit with her all night and talk
Wrapped up in my old sweaterIm nothing like the guys she knew
Who promised things they couldnt do
And the only thing that was really true
Was the day would come when they were through
If she only had the eyes to see
That Im the kind of nothin
That she needsAnd Ill always be that kind of nothin
She never dreamed about
But Ill always be the man
That never leaves her with a doubt
Im not so blind that I cant see
Shes a treasure without a key[Bridge]And theres no way in but what she will allow
All she ever wanted was a faithful lifetime vow
