lyrics

What do you do,
when you want to be somebody else?
How do you prove
that you're not one of them?
They've got their shallow, uniform expectation
and I know it's a waste of time

...but I like what's in my vision
though there's no companion for me
It's true, there ain't no better fishin
But they're hooked on a line of popular industry
Oh you know I see lots of beautiful women,
lord knows they ain't a-lookin' at me

I don't need sentimental,
I just want to enjoy our vibe
I swear I could fall in love with you in just five minutes time
I might be gullible,
I'm a sucker for almost everyone that I see
Oh you know I see lots of beautiful faces,
lord knows they ain't a-lookin at me.

Oh, but am I selfish to say I'd settle for less?
Another's emotion's not my focus, it's not fair that I forget
And I'm only trying to say sometimes I'm so lonely
Ain't it easy to see why I want to be somebody else?

But oh, my reel is spinning
As you choose not to walk on by
I see hope for a lovin friend as I swim in your blue eyes.
I know it's not the hustle,
maybe you feel lonesome just like me.
Oh, and as I sink into your gazes,
I think I'll make ya my baby.
