I watched while you might say So long happy trails You can only wait so long Till the wind shakes your sails And you see the she says "bye bye" Then she turns and digs her heels back in I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight Oh you got nothing to prove to me
You say the deck is oh so stacked Is that all just in your mind It can sometimes be turned back Maybe sometimes if you try The play goes on and on While the big cats all lay their claim
I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight I'm gonna let you be the bigger man tonight Oh you got nothing to prove
If it all comes down tonight There'll be shades of light From a wider source Oh hit me up they'd say "We'll make nero hide Till Rome it burns to the ground" Then we'll never wave bye bye They never have seen a darker horse than us
