Lady Antebellum - The woman makes the man

I'm all busted aces and empty pockets
an arrow shot straight through a locket
in this cheap hotel room on this lonesome highway
everything I own is this tattered old suitcase
but you know I haven't always been this way

Ooh, I used to be a hero, and a lover
she brought out the best in me
but now I'm just a lost soul with a broken heart
half the man I used to be
and it took losing her, for me to finally understand
that the woman really makes the man

Ooh,she was like an angel
sweet as Tobely Honey
every move she made was right on the money
but I took her for granted
'cause I thought I always hold her
and she bought into every line that I sold her
oh but I threw it all away
oh why did I throw it all away? I used to be a hero, and a lover
she brought out the best in me
but now I'm just a lost soul with a broken heart
half the man I used to be
and it took losing her for me, to finally understand
that the woman really makes the man

Well this face staring back at me in this mirror
ain't the face I wanna see
I'm gotta figure out how to get back
to who I used to be
oh yeah, oh

I used to be a hero, and a lover
she brought out the best in me
but now I'm just a lost soul with a broken heart
half the man I used to be
and it took losing her for me, to finally understand
that the woman really makes the man
yes, a woman really makes a man
