When I See You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I can see I'm so far away
Can't see it any other way
When it really works I don't get in the way
Is this a job, is this a joke
I'm breathing fire, you're blowing smoke
I've been blinded by what I know
And all I know
Is when I see you, I wanna be with you
I want you to see the real me
Now what if I get lost on the way
And I say all those things you don't want me to say
What if we're still going the same way
You're not a victim, not in danger
I'm not your rival, not a stranger
I've been blinded by what I know
And all I know
When I see you, I wanna be with you
I want you to see the real me
When I see you I wanna be with you
I want you to see what's inside of me
No matter what you do or what you say
I want you to change, but you can change
When I see you I want to be with you
I want you to see the real me
When I see you I wanna be with you
I want you to see what's inside of me
I want you to be
I want you to be whoever you want to be
