When the waltzes ended and the cathedrals burned
You're not to blame for all my growin' up
Now we're standing on the edge of us
Bent over backwards what a foolish loss
All the drives north on ninety five in silence
I rescue myself count as the seconds pass
I know that this won't last I've got a secret to tell

I try to be
I try to be honest
I try to be everything you think I should be
Can I be, can I be honest?
I might not be everything you think I should be

When the head is stranded on a bed of stone
Two hearts in silence that's no way to go
Were we born for poems do we use the words of love
The price I pay for all I'm thinking of

All the drives south on ninety five in silence
I rescue myself count as the seconds pass
I know that this won't last I got a secret to tell

Try to be try to be honest
Try to be everything you think I should be
But can I be?
Can I be honest I might not be everything you think I should be

I can drive you home
We can dance alone
But I might not be everything you think I should be
We can stay late on the phone
Laugh till we're old
But I might not be everything you think I should be
I might not be everything you think I should be
I might not be everything you think I should be
I might not be everything you think I should be
