AIMEE MANN - That's Just What You Are lyrics

rate me

(one two)<br><br>In our endeavor we are never seeing eye to eye<br>No guts to sever so forever may we wave goodbye<br>And you're always telling me that it's my turn to move<br>When I wonder what could make the needle jump the groove<br>I won't fall for the oldest trick in the book<br>So don't sit there and think you're off of the hook<br>By saying there is no use changing 'cause<br><br>That's just what you are<br>That's just what you are<br><br>Acting steady always ready to defend your fears<br>What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears<br>By suggesting that a change might be a thing to try<br>Like it would kill you just to try and be a nicer guy<br>It's not like you would lose some critical piece<br>If somehow you moved point a to point b<br>Maintaining there is no point changing 'cause<br><br>That's just what you are<br>That's just what you are<br><br>Now I could talk to you till I'm blue in the face<br>But we still would arrive at the very same place<br>With you running around and me out of the race<br><br>-very cool keyboard (mellotron? ) solo-<br><br>So maybe you're right, nobody can take<br>Something older than time and hope you could make<br>It better, that would be a mistake<br>So take it just so far<br><br>'cause that's just what you are<br>That's just what you are<br>That's just what you are<br><br>Acting steady always ready to defend your fears<br>What's the matter with the truth, did I offend your ears<br>You're like a sleepwalking man, it's a danger to wake you<br>Even when it is apparent where your actions will take you<br><br>That's just what you are<br>And that's just what you are<br>That's just what you are<br>That's just what you are
