Paroles
What was that about the ballroom dancing class I asked about
That's all I've thought about 'cause you were saying
That we might get a chance to talk
And talk might lead to dancing
Maybe dance might lead to dates and dates to aging
I hope you let your intuition
Precede my reputation 'cause I have one
Well I am what you see
I am not what they say
But if I turned out to be
Could you love me anyway?
Standing anonymous hoping your heart
Will just wake up and ask for me by name
Maybe someday will ask for me by name
Just not today
Well if this is love then it's hard to say
With the notes in your books and your reaching away
I've confidence issues with your intentions
And I'm not hip to all your tricks
With your algebra and your politics
And the band has planned a hotel intervention
So don't you leave me by my lonesome
To exceed my reputation 'cause I have one
Well I am what you see
I am not what they say
But if I turned out to be
Could you love me anyway?
Standing anonymous hoping your heart
Will just wake up and ask for me by name
Maybe someday will ask for me by name
Just not today
I'm always here
Walked you home and headed for my own
Until again I'm needed
Well I am what you see
I am not what they say
But if I turned out to be
Could you love me anyway?
Well I am what you see
I am not what they say
But if I turned out to be
Could you love me anyway?
Standing anonymous hoping your heart
Will just wake up and ask for me by name
Maybe someday will ask for me by name
Just not today
Not today
