A Reasonable Man (I Don’t Mind) lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't mind losing a girl to herself
A quiet love is better than none
And I don't mind losing a friend to a friend
If only to be a reasonable man
Ah

[Verse 2]
And I don't mind waiting if it's for the best
A careful heart is better than none
And I don't mind painting my back with the past
Pictures in resolute pain
Smoothing the lie for the lame

[Chorus]
But if it happens to you
The same kind of deal
I recommend fire
Instead of the fool

[Verse 3]
And I don't mind shaking your hand at the door
If only to be a resolute man
If only to be a resolutе man
If only to be a resolute man, hmmm

[Chorus]
But if it happens to you
The same kind of deal
I recommend fire
Instead of the fool

[Outro]
And I don't mind shaking your hand at the door
If only to be a resolute man
If only to be a resolute man
If only to be a resolute man
If only to be a resolute man
If only to be a resolute man
