What do the words of this song mean?

Brandon Heath - I'm Not Who I Was Lyrics



I wish you could see me now

I wish I could show you how

I'm not who I was

I used to be mad at you

A little on the hurt side too

But I'm not who I was



I found my way around

To forgiving you

Some time ago

But I never got to tell you so



I found us in a photograph

I saw me and I had to laugh

You know, I'm not who I was

You were there, you were right above me

And I wonder if you ever loved me

Just for who I was



When the pain came back again

Like a bitter friend

It was all that I could do

To keep myself from blaming you



I reckon it's a funny thing

I figured out I can sing

Now I'm not who I was

I write about love and such

Maybe 'cause I want it so much

I'm not who I was



I was thinking maybe I

I should let you know

I am not the same

But I never did forget your name

Hello



Well the thing I find most amazing

In amazing grace

Is the chance to give it out

Maybe that's what lWhat do the words of this song mean?
I've heard of the song too and i think i have come to my best conclusion that he is talking to someone that died. The first time i heard it, i assumed that the speaker was someone who died and is singing from heaven( not that it is possible but i've heard a song made to sound that way). My assumption came from wat he said in the song " BUt i never did forget your name" but wen i listened to the song again i found out that sometimes the pain and hurt he felt still comes back again. My best understanding of this song is that the speaker had a great misunderstanding with someone else, who he forgave but died before he could say he had forgiven the person. He is telling the person who died that he is not the same anylonger and that he is a changed person. It's a dedication to the person who died that he( the speaker) is not the person he was or was known to be. He is now a changed man.Maybe it shows that we don't know when a loved one would be gone so we should always whisper words of love cos u might never know when it would be too late and u wouldnt want ur last words to that person to be one of hatred.
sounds like lost loveWhat do the words of this song mean?
Seems rather straight forward to me.
some guy who only came to realise his love to some woman used to be fake and now that feeling is making him feel bad.. now he says he is really in love.. that he changed...What do the words of this song mean?
The beginning is talking about being hurt and hurtful but having changed that. Then it says that the person is forgiving thier ex-girlfriend and had decided to forgive them before, but couldn't get ahold of them. The photo part is about remebering and doubting love. The picture brought back the negative feelings that led to a breakup, and he tried not to blame his ex. He then says that he wrote the song because he wanted to love someone very much, and to let the girl know he had changed and that he hadn't forgotten her. After that I'm lost.
