Lyrics
Verse 1:
Sitting all alone, I see her walking by.
Something about her really caught my eye.
It’s hard to describe exactly how I feel
When I can’t tell whether or not this is real.
It hard to sleep at night ‘cause I tend to find
That she is the only thing on my mind.
I never thought I would ever feel this way.
I want to talk to her but don’t know what to say.
Pre-chorus:
What can I do?
Better to win than be true.
Chorus:
I gotta change my act. I gotta change my pose.
I gotta use a different voice and put on different clothes.
Being someone else, I thought it through and through,
Impressing Emily is the hardest thing to do.
Verse 2:
If there was a way that I could be
The person that she’s looking for so she could be with me.
I wish I was the kind of guy who could open up inside.
Then I’d feel so confident, with nothing left to hide.
What can I do?
Better win than be true.
I gotta change my act. I gotta change my pose.
I gotta use a different voice and put on different clothes.
Being someone else, I thought it through and through,
Impressing Emily is the hardest thing to do.
Bridge:
Countless times I’ve been rejected.
Countless days I’ve wondered how.
It has been so painful,
But I’ve come too far to give up now.
Ending pre-chorus:
I know what I must do
To her I must be true.
Final Chorus:
I gotta keep my act. I gotta keep my pose.
I gotta use my own true voice and wear my own damn clothes.
Being my own self, oh I finally knew,
Impressing Emily is not that hard to do.
