Lyrics
Sorry Sue
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'm not who you think I am
I'm a boy, not a man
It ain't really me you want
I'm just the one you're counting on
Sorry Sue, I'm not in love with you
It ain't you, I was born this blue
Take a look around this place
The floors are swept, the pictures straight
But underneath all that decor
Are empty walls and nothing more
Sorry Sue, I'm not in love with you
It ain't you, I was born this blue
Run for cover and get some rest
Pleasant dreams, I'll do my best
If I'm not everything you need
Don't forget it's just a dream
Sorry Sue, I'm not in love with you
It ain't you, I was born this blue
