Lyrics

Verse 1

You handed me the ring size

I wrote it on my palm

Practiced how I'd say the words

Steady voice and calm

But my hands won't stop their shaking

And my knees won't hold the weight

Something in me keeps on breaking

Every time I hesitate

Pre-Chorus

You deserve a man who's certain

You deserve a man who stays

I keep staring at the curtain

Waiting for the doubt to fade

Chorus

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

To stand up there and promise you forever

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

So I'm giving you the ring back

Giving you the ring back

Verse 2

Your mother asked me Sunday

What date we had in mind

I smiled and changed the subject

Left the question far behind

Drove the long way home in silence

Past the chapel on the hill

Pictured you in white and smiling

Pictured me just standing still

Pre-Chorus

You deserve a man who's ready

You deserve a man who knows

I keep trying to be steady

But the fear just grows and grows

Chorus

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

To stand up there and promise you forever

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

So I'm giving you the ring back

Giving you the ring [Bridge]

I love you

God I love you

That's the part that hurts the most

I love you

God I love you

But loving you ain't what you need from me

Breakdown

Not enough

Not enough

I am not enough for you

Not enough

Not enough

I am not enough for you

Chorus

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

To stand up there and promise you forever

I don't have what it takes

I don't have what it takes

So I'm giving you the ring back

Giving you the ring back

Giving you the ring back
