Jim Cosgrove - I Can't Be lyrics

rate me

You said you hate the way I look

You hate my personality

Even though I'm like every other good guy

You don't like where I live

Well, that's too bad cause

I'm having problems myself

And you're just making it worse

You're just gonna have to wait

Hey hey hey hey hey!

I can't be what you want me to be

I want you to love me for me

And not someone else you wish I could be

Cause I'm all that I am

And I will always be who I am

But you don't know that well anyway

So that is why I can't be

What you wish I could be

In the beginning

We were so good

We fell in love

We didn't much on what we did

But now you're doing this to me

You're focusing on the stuff about me

That makes little difference in life

I don't do this to you

So just let me, let me be!

Hey hey hey hey hey! (Hey)

I can't be what you want me to be

I want you to love me for me

And not someone else you wish I could be

Cause I'm all that I am

And I will always be who I am

But you don't know that well anyway

So that is why I can't be

What you wish I could be

Let me, let me be myself today

Let me, let me be who I am

Gotta, gotta go the way I go

Because, because you don't know

How it feels to be in my shoes

Let me, let me be myself today (Todayyyyyyy)

Let me, let me be who I am

Gotta, gotta go the way I go

Because, because you don't know

How it feels to be in my shoes

I can't be what you want me to be

I want you to love me for me

And not someone else you wish I could be

Cause I'm all that I am

And I will always be who I am

But you don't know that well anyway

So that is why I can't be

What you wish I could be

Love me for me

Like I love you for you
