Not Quite Like You

It's a funny trick how the world works People just screaming to be seen But they're not quite like you If you know what I mean You are the best thing I'm dying to happen to me You are everything I am You're also what I wish I could be But you don't see what I see You look the mirror You think you have problems Seeing the worst never did anyone good You're seeing a lie Because I know just who you are It's like you have the character of someone I wrote I don't think you know But let me heal your heart I know just where Just where To start You're just so good I wish you could see it Couldn't make up a better guy if I tried You are the best thing I'm dying to happen to me You are everything I am You're also what I wish I could be But you don't see what I see What a crazy thing A beautiful boy can't see that He's incredible and he's everything to me Puts himself down while everyone else struts around It's a funny trick how the world works People just screaming to be seen But they're not quite like you If you know what I mean No, they're not quite like you Not quite like you If you know what I mean
