George

I get too caught up in my own head

Taking life too seriously, carrying the weight of lead

But then you look at me and make me laugh

And clear the heavy weather off my path

When I was sinking and feeling so down

You played your guitar just to turn it around

Strumming the chords until I could smile

Making me feel like I'm safe for a while

When you hold me, my anxiety goes down

The quiet settles in and turns my soul around

You know my heart has been so badly torn apart

But I trust you with the pieces, I trust you with the start

I don't need a hero flying through the sky

Just the steady way you look me in the eye

I need a real man, not a superman

And I found him right here holding my hand

You take me driving where the mountains rise

My special place beneath the open skies

You cook me breakfast when the morning's new

And wash the dishes 'cause I hate to do them too

It's in the quiet, simple ways you care

Proving every day that you are really there

You know exactly what I need to see

To bring out the very best side of me

When you hold me, my anxiety goes down

The quiet settles in and turns my soul around

You know my heart has been so badly torn apart

But I trust you with the pieces, I trust you with the start

I don't need a hero flying through the sky

Just the steady way you look me in the eye

I need a real man, not a superman

And I found him right here holding my hand

Sometimes you wear an armor, standing tall

But I'm the lucky one who gets to watch it fall

When you let your guard down, I see the truth inside

A heart so big and beautiful, it's impossible to hide

You keep me grounded when the world gets cold

You're the only one I ever want to hold

'Cause when you hold me, my anxiety goes down

The quiet settles in and turns my soul around

You know my heart has been so badly torn apart

But I trust you with the pieces, I trust you with the start

I don't need a hero flying through the sky

Just the honest way you look me in the eye

I need a real man, not a superman

And I found him, George, right here holding my hand
