Big man yesterday but boy you ought to see me now well I talked big yesterday but boy you ought to see me now I bragged too long that your love was strong there'd never be another guy but you said more when you whispered your goodbye I was a big man yesterday but boy you ought to see me now I said that I was through with you that I didn't need you anyhow I said I didn't need you then but boy you ought to see me now those bragging words that you were mine of that there was no doubt some tempting lessons of my life walked out half my life left me yesterday and boy you ought to see me now I couldn't see it yesterday but now I know it's true the only thing that made me big was you I was a big man yesterday but boy you ought to see me now if you could only see me now if you would only see me now if you would only see me now if you could only see me now
