i am not a devil i am not a saint can t tell if the wood is good by looking at the paint it s not that i don t love you some words are just hard for me to say i wish i was a poet honey i m not built that way i know someone hurt you that s all in the past he was one to hit and run but i don t work like that gonna take forever to finish what we started here today i just can t lie about it honey i m not built that way i m built to go the distance solid as a rock i climb all my mountains to the top and i won t run for cover even when our sunny skies turn gray honey i m not built that way saying it is one thing proving it takes time but the thought that i don t love you should never cross your mind i m built to go the distance solid as a rock i climb all my mountains to the top and i won t run for cover even when our sunny skies turn gray honey i m not built that way
