David Hodges - A Man Who Makes Mistakes

When I was five
My grandma gave me my first memory
The Dukes of Hazzard car with a plastic key
And it wasn't the one I wanted
And there's a right way to be honest
And still be grateful
I know it's late but I'm thankful

When I left home
I brought my baggage with me when I moved west
Met a friend and told her how to live
She loved me even though I
Couldn't see that my mind
Was so closed then
I know that it's late but I'm hoping

There is a fine line
Between my past and me and
There is a timeline
Connecting who you see
It takes a lifetime
Of learning everyday
This is a story
Of a man who makes mistakes

Ohh

When I grew up
I met a girl and we decided to settle down
But we lost the fire we had somehow
And when my heart got darker
Her heart just got larger
Just like magic
And I don't take that for granted

There is a fine line
Between my past and me and
There is a timeline
Connecting who you see
It takes a lifetime
Of learning everyday
This is a story
Of a man who makes mistakes

But I'm not done learning
And I'm not done hoping
I'm not done hurting
Or failing
And hey I'm not done growing

'Cause there is a fine line
Between my past and me and
There is a timeline
Connecting who you see
It takes a lifetime
Of learning everyday
This is a story
Of a man who makes mistakes

Before this ends
Looking back there's so much to forget
But I can't think of any last regrets
One thing I keep learning
That beauty is a journey
So I'm not just older
I know it's late but I'm closer
