Shallow - Intellectual

[Intro]

You're watching the cars, movies and stars

They are your lifetime

Yet, all that I am is half what we are

Maybe some other time

I'll get it right

Oh, sweet voice on the phone

You sound so alone

'Cause you couldn't be wasted

Yet, all that I ever was

To you I am

I'm less than a man

That slowly changes out of phase

And I don't know why it is

It's an ever-changing simple thing that I miss

While watching TV, take in what you see

So your death is painless

When all that I ever was returns again

I'm all that I am

And I'll get it right

When I get it right

'Cause I'll get it right

When I get it right

But I'm slowly changing out of phase

And I don't know why it is

It's an ever-changing simple thing that I know

But don't know why it is

That I'm longing for a sweet embrace, which I miss
