Real Me Lyrics

Real Me lyrics

I should have known in the beginning

It had to reach a bitter end

To play the knight in shining armour

When I was just a simple man



But I became the one you wanted

And for a while it all made perfect sense

So I believed telling you lies was

Just an act of self defense



So it goes

Don't we all know the story

Of princes and frogs

And dreams colliding with real life



Well, it shouldn't have come as a surprise

You could have been well prepared for this

You could have seen it in my eyes

If you had looked there once



I never liked telling you lies

I've always hoped at last you'd see

The man behind the disguise

The real me
