Alter Ego

Said the voice from afar
Don't you know it doesn't have to be so hard?
Waiting for everyone else around to agree
Might take too long, might take too long
When it won't be so hard
(It won't be so hard)
Well it's true, yes but you
Won't get far telling me
That you are all you're meant to be
When the one from my dream
Is sitting right next to me
And I don't know what to do, oh alter ego
Get them to love you
While they may depending
On your words and wealth
The only one who's really judging
You is yourself
Nobody else, nobody else
If I could part it wouldn't be so hard
(It wouldn't be so hard)
Well it's true, yes but you
Won't get far telling me
That you are all you're meant to be
When the one from my dream
Is sitting right next to me
And I don't know what to do, oh alter ego
