It only seems like yesterday When you came and took me over Believing every word you say You had me hypnotized But now I realize The dream we had is just a lie And my heart is calling, calling It's not me No more lies, I won't cry for tomorrow It's not me Read my mind, are you blind to this sorrow You need the perfect girl to fit inside your perfect world It's something I'll never be You know it's not me These days it always seems so hard When it started it came easy I should have know you'd play my heart The rule they twist and turn Anyway you please Just when I think I'm over you I feel myself falling, falling It's not me No more lies, I won't cry for tomorrow It's not me Read my mind, are you blind to this sorrow You need the perfect girl to fit inside your perfect world It's something I'll never be You know it's not me No more sorrow, no more pain 'Cause now I know I can breathe again Believe again And I'm not gonna live a lie It's not me No more lies, I won't cry for tomorrow It's not me Read my mind, are you blind to this sorrow You need the perfect girl to fit inside your perfect world It's something I'll never be You know it's not me
