A man stands next to a great wall
He's too close, he can't see at all
But if he doesn't stand so near
The bigger picture become so clear

I've been so into myself now
In my world, I saw nothing else
So many times I made you cry
I never knew the reasons why

I couldn't face the truth that was inside
But as the world is turning
You know I'm slowly learning

Looking at love from a different view
Seeing myself the way you do
Checking myself, checking myself
Searching my soul

Looking at love through another's eyes
Seeing things I never realized
Kicking myself, kicking myself I was
But now I'm looking at love

I stared deep into the mirror
A hard look, I ain't no hero
For the first time I can see
How hard it's been to love a man like me

You give your love with no conditions
You trust me with no suspicions
I know I haven't done the same
I never really saw your pain

I couldn't face the truth that was inside
But as the world is turning
You know I'm slowly learning

Looking at love from a different view
Seeing myself the way you do
Checking myself, checking myself
Searching my soul

Looking at love through another's eyes
Seeing things I never realized
Kicking myself, kicking myself I was
But now I'm looking at love

I couldn't face the truth that was inside
But as the world is turning
You know I'm slowly learning

Looking at love from a different view
Seeing myself the way you do
Checking myself, checking myself
Searching my soul

Looking at love through another's eyes
Seeing things I never realized
Kicking myself, kicking myself I was
But now I'm looking at love

Looking at love from a different view
Seeing myself the way you do
Checking myself, checking myself
Searching my soul
