I`m supposed to shake his hand and walk all smiling
Make believe that you don`t mean a thing to me
I`m supposed to offer my congratulations but I`m not the man that I supposed to be
I`m supposed to make believe I won`t miss you
And forget the times you held me tenderly
I`m supposed to tell the world it never happened
But I`m not the man that I supposed to be
I`d rather stand up and fight for what`s mine
And to give you up it`s just too much for me
So if I don`t shake his hand and come out fighting
That I`m not the man that I supposed to be
[ piano ]
So if I don`t shake his hand...
