Lyrics
Verse 1
Would you still give me all of that
If all of me wasn't perfect?
You're so used to the polished view
Of all the things that you deserve
And when the sun comes up
Will you still think that I'm enough?
Can I take off this makeup?
Pre-Chorus
I used to think that it was better
To just hide all of my flaws, oh-oh-oh
But when you look at me like
I'm the only one you want, oh-oh-oh
Chorus
I get the feeling
You fell in love with what I can be
More than who I am
Did you envision
A prettier version of me?
Did I lie or did you assume?
'Cause I'm just scared to death
That when you see the real me
You'll realize you've wasted your time
And the love you gave me
Was just a waste of mine
Verse 2
Would you still want me as your wife
If I was just a mediocre housewife?
Would you still love me if my body changed
And I didn't look like this for the rest of my life?
And when the seasons turn
Will you still be here for what you earn?
Do I still make you proud?
Pre-Chorus
Or am I just another cliché
Of a girl who got lucky, oh-oh-oh?
A dumb pretty girl that you
Should've seen through from the start, oh-oh-oh
Chorus
I get the feeling
You fell in love with what I can be
More than who I am
Did you envision
A prettier version of me?
Did I lie or did you assume?
'Cause I'm just scared to death
That when you see the real me
You'll realize you've wasted your time
And the love you gave me
Was just a waste of mine, oh
Bridge
Oh, I'm not afraid of heartbreak
But the thought of you being disappointed in me
That scares me most
'Cause I know I can love you forever
But if you love me for someone I'm not
Then who am I even holding close?
Chorus
I have this feeling
You fell in love with what I can be
More than who I am
Did you envision
A prettier version of me?
Did I lie or did you assume?
'Cause I'm just scared to death
That when you see the real me (when you see the real)
You'll realize you've wasted your time (you've wasted your time)
And the love you gave me (ooh)
Was just a waste of mine (a waste of mine)
Outro
Oh, yeah
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh-ooh
Oh, oh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-ooh-ooh
