[Verse 1]

Bad night, I cried

On my way back to mine

I can't keep my thoughts in mine

I like my life

When I see it through your eyes

When the mask fits alright

No sleep for me

I stay up watching TV

Keeping my dreams out of reach

I want you close

Just not close enough to know

Where my thoughts tend to go

[Chorus]

I'll be whoever you want me to be

And I'll say all of your favorite things

I'll pick you up in the morning

Promise not to be boring

I'll be someone your parents can meet

And I'll kiss you in the back of the cab

Let you cry when you're holding my hand

And I'll remember your friends' names

Get gifts on your birthdays

But you'll never know who I am

[Verse 2]

One drink too much

Wondering if I said enough

To keep you from getting up

And oh well, it's hell, learning these lines by myself

Oh I hope that you'll never tell

Hooray, clichés, ten ways to light up her face

Soon as you walk through the door

And it's just the thought of all the love that I lost

Keeps me from trying again

[Chorus]

I'll be whoever you want me to be

And I'll say all of your favorite things

I'll pick you up in the morning

Promise not to be boring

I'll be someone your parents can meet

And I'll kiss you in the back of the cab

Let you cry when you're holding my hand

And I'll remember your friends' names

Get gifts on your birthdays

But you'll never know who I am

[Chorus 2]

I'll be whoever you want me to be

And I'll say all of your favorite things

And I'll give you all the blame

Who falls in love on the first date?

Oh you think you know who I am

[Outro]

And I'll give you all the blame

Who falls in love on the first date?

Oh you think you know who I am
