Just Be Yourself

Sometimes we just try too hard,
The feelings seem forced and the words lose their charm.
I’m starting to wonder if I even know who you are.
And so why, why, why won’t you just be yourself?

You’re running from your shadow, you’re trying to escape it
And I wanna love you for you.
Loving under-cover, I’m doubting we can make it,
Baby just be yourself.
Baby just be yourself.

Love leave the act, I don’t need it,
Whatever you lack let’s concede that
It’s not a big deal, what hurts me the most
Is that you’re not real with me.
So why, why, why can’t you just be yourself?

(Chorus)

And so why, why, why would you hide from me?
I, I, I, I, I guarantee
Our love can’t sustain one more lie.
And you don’t even have to try.

(Chorus)
