According To Me

When we first met, we were in love,
I was an older man.
I couldn't understand what you saw in me,
I barely had a dime.
And as time went by, you were losing touch,
You made clear to me.

I've lived my life as a decent man, according to me.
Never able to do the right thing, according to you.

I gave you me,
You took a piece and made something sweet.
Of all our mistakes,
That's the one that so innocently.
Will carry part of me,
Like it or not, like it or not.

I've lived my life as a decent man, according to me.
Never able to do the right thing, according to you.

And I don't mind if the dust, the dust accumulates,
I've worked really hard, does't bother me much.
I'm proud of all the dirt beneath these very nails,
I'm a working man, doesn't bother me much.

And I don't care if you hate me now,
We'll have to agree.
There's a new life among us now,
And she needs you and me... she needs you and me.

And I don't mind if the dust, the dust accumulates,
I've worked really hard, doesn't bother me much.
I'm proud of all the dirt beneath these very nails,
I'm a working man, doesn't bother me...
Doesn't bother me.
