He's Just Like Me
This would be considered more or less a "power ballad" in the country genre, with the 'He's just like me" part really sang and emphasized. Basically a story about men who have regrets after losing their women and how they should have done better and more to keep them.

Met a down down in Colorado
Selling paintings of the sea
In a valley of the Rocky Mountains
Said he's seen it in a dream
Said the waves they pick him up
And feels like he's going home
But he wakes sweatin' and shakin'
Knowing that's not where he belongs
(Chorus)
He's just like me
Out here doing his best to keep on breathing
Just like me
Can't remember the good times and only sees her leaving
Just like me
Loved a woman once, but maybe enough
And maybe that's why she left us
Yeah, I'm sure that's why she left us
A shame it takes a lifetime for a fool like that to see
But we notice it in each other, when we say
He's just like me
Saw a reflection of a stranger
The hard years were his disguise
Couldn't make out those old features
But I recognized those eyes
But he wouldn't look back at me
He just hung his head in shame
Well, I couldn't blame the stranger
Find myself doing the same
(Chorus)
