Lyrics

Every time I see you, I feel chills run down my spine
And every time I touch you, I feel weak
The way the sun shines in your hair and the lights dance in your eyes
Makes my heart race and I lose the power to speak
In a picture-perfect world, the picture-perfect girl is you
And so it breaks my heart to realize I’m not the one for you

I don’t know what you’ve been looking for
I don’t know just who you hoped I’d be
But if I could change my clothes, my hair, beliefs or my ambitions
I still won’t be the one you’d want to see
Though to draw you near and to hold you tight
Is the only thing I really want to do
But I’ll shed my tears and I’ll say goodbye
Cause, most of all, I want what’s best for you.

There’s a fire of passion in my heart that burns for you alone
But the love that’s in my eyes is not reflected in your own
And though I’ve hoped you’d realize the one you’re looking for is me
I know, way deep inside my heart, that it’s not meant to be
I could shout my love from mountaintops - reflect it in my art
But none of that means anything if I can’t change your heart.

I don’t know what you’ve been looking for
I don’t know just what you hoped I’d be
But if I could change my clothes, my hair, beliefs or my ambitions
I still won’t be the one you want to see
Though to draw you near and to hold you tight
Is the only thing I really want to do
But I’ll shed my tears and I’ll say goodbye
Cause, most of all, I want what’s best for you.
