George Teren - I'm Not Built That Way lyrics

[Verse 1] I am not a devil, I am not a saint Can't tell if the wood is good by looking at the paint It's not that I don't love you Some words are just hard for me to say I wish I was a poet Honey I'm not built that way [Verse 2] I know someone hurt you, that's all in the past He was one to hit and run but I don't work like that Gonna take forever to finish what we started here today I just can't lie about it Honey I'm not built that way [Chorus] I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock I climb all my mountains to the top And I won't run for cover Even when our sunny skies turn gray Honey I'm not built that way [Verse 3] Saying it is one thing Proving it takes time But the thought that I don't love you Should never cross your mind [Chorus] I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock I climb all my mountains to the top And I won't run for cover Even when our sunny skies turn gray Honey I'm not built that way
