What happens if I fail?
What if I succeed?
What if I have no faith?
What if I believe?
What if I believe.
What if I am selfish?
What if I am vain?
What if I am helpless?
What if I am plain?
What if I am plain.
I bet you thought you knew me.
What did you expect?
Now you're looking through me,
this secret that I've kept
for so many years, trying to hide:
I'm just ordinary.
So what if you accept me,
take me as I am?
What if you respect me?
What if I'm your man?
What if I'm your man.
Will it make me happy?
Will it make me whole?
Will it save my life?
Will it save my soul?
Will it save my soul.
I bet you thought you knew me.
What did you expect?
Now you're looking through me,
this secret that I've kept
for so many years, trying to hide:
I'm just ordinary.
