She's beautiful in her simple little way She don't have too much to say when she gets mad She understands, she don't let go of anything Even when the pain gets really bad I guess I should've been more like that You had it all for a pretty little while And somehow you made me smile when I was sad You took a chance on a bruised and beaten heart And then you realized you wanted what you had I guess I should've been more like that I should have held on to my pride I should have never let you lie I guess you got what you deserved I guess I should've been more like her Forgiving you, well, she's stronger than I am You don't look much like a man from where I'm at It's plain to see desperation showed it's truth You love her, and she loves you with all she has I guess I should've been more like that I should have held on to my pride I should have never let you lie I guess you got what you deserved I guess I should've been more like her She's beautiful in her simple little way
