JOHN MAYER - EVERYTHING YOU'LL EVER BE lyrics

rate me

Beautiful, I watch you try

To see yourself through others' eyes

The mirrors are a losing game

They only show you backwards anyway

The magic and the misery

Come and go so easily

But everything you'll ever be

You already are to me

When you were only five years old

Playing princess in your mothers clothes

Could you feel me standing next to you

With my plastic sword and playground shoes

Saying if my dear I'm wrong somehow, the dragons come and fail me now.

Because everything you'll ever be

You already are to me

Why

I don't know why

I don't know why you think you need to do it

How

I don't know how

I don't know how you been

I just sit back and see my way right through it

When the memories stand ten feet tall

Casting shadows on your bedroom wall

When you pull the shade and kill the lights

Will you hear me singing out tonight?

Will you hear me singing out tonight?

Days are long and words are cruel

They won't get the best of you

Because everything you'll ever be

You have always been to me
