you that's really you

well

you did it again

showed up in a red dress

when you'd rather be in levis and some funky old shoes

dressing up for someone

tryin' to make an impression

so he doesn't have a notion of the real you

turning and twisting

hiding in corners

never believing what you got is enough

but how can he love you if he never sees you

for the you that's really you

not the you that's in love?

love is a strange thing

love makes you willing

to be a chameleon for the sake of your heart

makes you keep as a secret what you are on the inside

while your instinct is screaming this is no place to start

turning and twisting

hiding in corners

never believing what you got is enough

but how can he love you if he never sees you

for the you that's really you

not the you that's in love?

we all know fear of rejection is a human thing

but in the shadows love will never really bloom

unless there's honesty

that's all it really needs

so turn all the lights on

let go of pretences

and run with the chances

just be who you are

stop turning and twisting

hiding in corners

never believing what you got is enough

cos how can he love you if he never sees you

for the you that's really you

not the you that's in love?

yeah

how can he love you if he never sees you

for the you that's really you

not the you that's in love?
